The Aleks Tata lab in the Department of Surgery, Duke University School of Medicine has an opening for postdoctoral researchers to study mechanisms in lung injury-repair. We seek to understand the cellular crosstalk and basic
molecular mechanisms during lung repair and disease. We utilize in vivo mouse genetics, live -imaging, 3D organoids, functional screening, and next generation sequencing technologies to study the behavior of tissues at single cell resolution. We offer an inspiring intellectual, collaborative, and multidisciplinary research environment to support your career goals and provide access to state-of-the-art facilities.
Join us in our mission to advance our understanding of alveolar development, homeostasis, regeneration, and pathology. Your valuable contributions will significantly impact various critical research areas. We are actively seeking highly motivated and collaborative individuals who can engage in independent reasoning and are enthusiastic about acquiring new technologies. Candidates with background knowledge and
hands-on experience in mouse models, proteomics, 3Dorganoids,primary cells purification and culture skills are particularly welcome.
