Research Assistant III – Organ-on-Chip
Research and Technology DevelopmentWe are looking for a Research Assistant III to join the Lung Organ on Chip team in Dr. Don Ingber’s laboratory. We use advanced Lung Organ Chip models to recapitulate key aspects of human lung physiology and pathophysiology and to study lung cancer progression, tumor–immune interactions, respiratory infections, inflammatory lung diseases, environmental exposures, and responses to candidate therapeutics. Our goal is to improve prediction of human drug safety and efficacy, uncover disease mechanisms, and accelerate development of new therapies, including through collaborations with industry partners and potential startup efforts.

Research Assistant III- Technology Development
Research and Technology DevelopmentWe are looking for a Research Assistant III to join our work developing novel technologies for biomarker discovery and diagnostics. You will work with a multidisciplinary team on developing novel technologies for investigating pathological states from human biofluids. You will lead development of novel methods that will be used across different diseases. Although you will work within a team and receive significant experimental and computational training, you will also have significant opportunities for scientific independence, and previous RAs working with us have contributed to multiple publications and presented their work at international conferences.
