Postdoctoral Scholar with Professor Sunny Jiang

$54,540 – 58,608 * Based on qualifications and experience
Will remain open until filled

The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at UC Irvine invites applications for a postdoctoral scholar position beginning fall 2021.

The postdoctoral scholar position is in the area of environmental microbiology/biotechnology for engineering applications. The ideal candidate should have experience in molecular biological and analytical methods, environmental/water sampling techniques, and the understanding of water and sanitation system.

Postdoctoral Scholar - Analysis of Biological and Biomimetic Materials

Commensurate with experience
Will remain open until filled

A postdoctoral research position is open in the area of biomimetics and biological composite materials. We are a research group investigating ultrastructure-mechanical property relationships in biological materials with the ultimate goal of producing strong and tough composites. The research is at the intersection of materials science, chemistry, biology and mechanics.

Postdoctoral Scholars - Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering

Commensurate with experience
Will remain open until filled

The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at UC Irvine has an occasional need for postdoctoral scholar positions (Levels I-IV) in the following research areas of the department, including but not limited to: structures, geotechnics and materials, transportation systems engineering, hydrology and water resources systems, and environmental processes and energy systems. These positions require a Ph.D. in civil engineering, environmental engineering or a related field from an accredited university.

Specialist Position - Stem Cell Biology & Tissue Engineering – Quinton Smith Group

Commensurate with experience

The Smith Lab is seeking to hire a highly motivated research specialist interested in the intersection of stem cell biology and tissue engineering (qsmithlab.com). Projects are focused on building in vitro systems to study gastrulation, tissue morphogenesis and vascularization of stem cell-derived organoid tissues. Implications of this work include elucidating the mechanisms of early embryonic developmental events toward hepatic and vascular tissues, to appraising the therapeutic efficacy of engineered cellular constructs.
