Postdoctoral Fellows

Qualifications

POSITION 1 | Chemistry & Materials Science for Long-Acting Therapeutics
Core qualification: Ph.D. or equivalent in chemistry, bioengineering, chemical engineering, materials science, polymer science, pharmaceutical sciences, or a related field.
Experience in polymer synthesis and characterization, controlled-release formulations or long-acting drug-delivery systems, release kinetics, degradation, mechanical or rheological characterization, and relationships to in vivo performance, scalable and manufacturable formulation or fabrication processes, in vitro and in vivo pharmacokinetic evaluation.

POSITION 2 | Non-Viral Delivery of Gene Therapies and Gene-Editing Tools
Core qualification: Ph.D. or equivalent in bioengineering, chemical engineering, molecular biology, pharmaceutical sciences, or a related field.
Experience in non-viral delivery of nucleic acids, including mRNA, siRNA, or CRISPR/Cas components, nanoparticle formulation and physicochemical characterization, targeting, biodistribution, or pharmacokinetic studies, in vitro and in vivo efficacy studies, including expression, knockdown, or editing readouts, adapting delivery technologies to new tissues and therapeutic targets.

POSITION 3 | Immunology and Immunoengineering
Core qualification: Ph.D. or equivalent in immunology, microbiology, molecular or cellular biology, or a related field.
Experience in immune responses to biomaterials, nanoparticles, or delivery platforms, experimental models of immunomodulation or neuroinflammation, flow cytometry, cytokine profiling, single-cell approaches, or related immunological assays, mechanistic studies that connect immune responses with therapeutic performance, close collaboration with materials- and delivery-focused scientists.
