Position description
The UC Merced Department of Bioengineering at the University of
California, Merced is seeking a self-motivated, creative,
enthusiastic, and qualified postdoctoral scholar to join our highly
collaborative and interdisciplinary group working at the interface
of engineering and biology. We study the hematopoietic and immune
systems in vivo through development and application of novel
imaging and sensing tools. For this project, we seek a postdoctoral
scholar to study the role of endothelial cells and the blood
vascular system in normal thymus function and during regeneration
in ways that have not been previously possible through use of novel
imaging methods and techniques for direct thymus evaluation.
The successful candidate will design, build, and iterate linear and
non-linear optical systems for live animal imaging of the thymus.
They will use intravital multiphoton microscopy and an array of wet
lab techniques in their work. Candidates will be expected to apply
for funding during their time as a postdoctoral scholar. Candidates
will assist in mentoring graduate and undergraduate students
working on related projects. Highly self-motivated individuals who
have demonstrated the ability to conduct independent scientific
research successfully are desirable.
