Postdoctoral Positions in ‘Regeneration and Ageing’
The Chinese Institutes for Medical Research, Beijing
We are seeking outstanding, highly motivated scientists to join our efforts to unveil cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying organ regeneration and probe the links between regeneration and ageing. We employ two genetically-tractable salamander models, the axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) and the Iberian ribbed newt (Pleurodeles waltl), known for their extreme regenerative abilities and negligible senescence traits. Combining state-of-the-art genetics, cell and molecular biology approaches, advanced imaging, multi-omics and cross-species comparative studies, we aim to uncover fundamental principles of regeneration and ageing towards basic and therapeutic applications. Further information can be found at www.theyunlab.com.
Candidates should have a Ph.D. degree in Biology, Biochemistry, Computational Biology or related, an outstanding academic track record, and fluency in spoken and written English. A strong background and research experience in Regenerative, Ageing, Developmental or
Evolutionary Biology is desirable. Ideally, candidates would be trained in animal experimentation (not exclusive), tissue culture, bioinformatics and cell/molecular biology techniques.
