Research Fellow in Cardiac Organoids

Job description

We are recruiting for a Research Fellow in Cardiac Organoids to join Prof Andriana Margariti's Stem Cells, and Regenerative Medicine in vascular diseases research team within the Wellcome-Wolfson Institute for Experimental Medicine. The successful candidate will work on a US/Ireland R&D Partnership- funded project based on the development of the next generation cardiac organoid systems using the remarkable technology of induced pluripotent stem cells. This project is employing cutting edge technologies of cell reprogramming, and cell differentiation. Complex in vitro and in vivo models will be used to develop the next-generation cardiac organoid systems that enable clinical therapies for heart disease. Importantly, this post will stimulate an innovation ecosystem network among Ireland, UK, and USA in cardiac patch and organoid systems to address global healthcare challenges.

This is a post funded by Northern Ireland – Public Health Agency, the Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs and the Department.

The successful candidate will also be supported by the Faculty Postdoctoral Development Centre as part of a wider Queen's offering which provides outstanding support to researchers.

The successful candidate must have:

Have or about to obtain a PhD in a biomedical field of laboratory-based research

At least 3 years' recent relevant research experience, to include:

Cell culture, including experience working with stem cells, or vascular cells, or organoids.

Standard molecular biology techniques (eg real time PCR, western blots, staining etc.).

This post is available until 31 December 2023.
