Post-doc PositionÌýAvailable in Biomaterials

Applications are invited to fill a postdoctoral position at the intersection of immunology, biomaterials, and tissue engineering. The successful applicant will pursue and participate in research in a highly collaborative team environment.

ÌýSpecific areas of expertise desired include:Ìý

• Innate immunology with a focus on myeloid cell biology (e.g., macrophages and neutrophils).
• Small animal model handling for in vivo studies.
• Cell culture and various biochemical and molecular biology assays (e.g., ELISAs, qPCR, flow cytometry, proteomics, etc.).
• Biomaterials, tissue engineering, and/or regenerative biology.

Start Date: Immediately-December 2024

If you are interested in translational science and have a background in these areas, you are encouraged to contact the project lead, Stephanie Bryant at sbryant@colorado.edu.

Undergraduates

Undergraduate opportunities are available in our laboratory on a limited and competitive basis. Undergraduates who work in our laboratory typically develop their own research project under the guidance of Prof. Bryant and a graduate student or post-doc and become independent researchers. Â鶹ÒùÔº are expected to be active members of the research group participating in weekly group meetings and helping to maintain the laboratory. There are numerous mechanisms by which undergraduates may work in our laboratory and include independent study, senior thesis, or through a variety of fellowships (e.g.,Ìý,Ìý,Ìý).Ìý

Interested undergraduates must meet the following requirements:

1) Due to the nature of our research, a minimum commitment of two full semesters is required.

2) Willing to volunteer on a trial basis prior to committing to a year long research project. This trial period is an opportunity for both the student and our lab to determine whether there is a good match. The trial period typically lasts a total of 10-15 hours and occurs the semester before embarking on a research project.Ìý

3) A student must be able to commit a minimum of 6 hours per week in blocks of at least 2 hours.

4) Attend weekly research group meetings, schedule permitting.

5) Prepare an oral presentation to be given at the end of each semester to our research group.

6) Any additional requirements depending on the mechanism by which the student is performing research (e.g., independent study, senior thesis, fellowships, etc.)Ìý

If you are interested, please email a cover letter and/or resume toÌýStephanie Bryant at sbryant@colorado.edu.
