Postdoctoral Scholar - Kheradvar Lab
The Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at UC Irvine invites highly motivated applicants for a postdoctoral scholar position (Level 0 – 2) in the Ardoña Research Group (https://faculty.sites.uci.edu/ardonaresearchgroup/). The scholar will be primarily working on a project that aims to address challenges in the maturation of stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes towards adult-like phenotypes.
The UC Irvine Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering invites applicants for up to three postdoctoral scholar positions (Level 0 – 3), in the Gorodetsky Group. The position requires a doctorate in biological engineering, chemical engineering, molecular and cellular biology or related fields at time of hire. There are multiple openings for applicants with expertise in cell biology, cellular engineering and bioelectronics, broadly defined. Expertise with mammalian cell culture, specifically within the context of bioelectronic devices, is preferred.
The UCI Department of Biomedical Engineering in the Samueli School of Engineering is currently accepting applications for postdoctoral scholars to join Professor Naomi Chesler’s lab (http://CheslerLab.org) to study the biomechanics and mechanobiology of pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular failure. Successful candidates will have demonstrated experience and expertise relevant to mechanobiology, vascular mechanics, hemodynamics and/or ventricular function.
The computational research group of Ryan Hayes at UC Irvine has an immediate opening for a postdoctoral scholar. The postdoctoral scholar will develop molecular simulation methods with a rigorous basis in statistical mechanics for protein design calculations. The selected candidate will have access to campus computing facilities and extensive collaboration with the Mobley group. The position provides opportunities for theoretical development and protein design applications of methods that have longstanding utility in big pharma for computer-aided drug design of small molecules.
The laboratories of Vasan Venugopalan and Elliot Botvinick at UC Irvine anticipate multiple postdoctoral scholar open positions (Levels 0-IV) to work with their groups. The selected candidates will also have access to resources at the Beckman Laser Institute, which is active in the development of a broad variety of optical technologies for biomedical application. The positions provide a unique opportunity to gain experience in a multidisciplinary biomedical optics research environment.
The UC Irvine Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering in the Samueli School of Engineering is anticipating openings of postdoctoral scholar positions (Levels 1- 5) throughout the academic year 2022-23. These positions require a doctorate in mechanical engineering or aerospace engineering.
The UCI Department of Materials Science and Engineering in the Samueli School of Engineering has openings for postdoctoral scholars in the research group of Distinguished Professor Enrique Lavernia.
The Department of Materials Science and Engineering invites applicants for a postdoctoral research position in the lab or Professor David Kisailus.
The postdoctoral research position is in the area of biomimetics and biological composite materials. The anticipated position duration is one to two years. Kisailus' research group investigates 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.
The Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at UC Irvine invites applicants for a postdoctoral scholar position to join Han Li's laboratory of Metabolic Engineering and Synthetic Biology. Candidates with the following expertise are welcome to apply: genetically engineering of microbes, protein purification, enzymatic assays, computational protein design, structure- and bioinformatics-guided protein engineering, and directed evolution. Good organization, communication and ability to work in a team setting are essential qualities. Candidates should have a Ph.D.
