Postdoctoral Associate

The laboratory of Dr. Samira Kiani at University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and Pittsburgh Liver Research Center is looking for an outstanding, highly motivated, and self-driven postdoc candidate to join a collaborative research program on gene editing and bioreactor liver chip technologies.
Please see the detailed announcement at the following link: Kiani Post-Doc

POSTDOCTORAL POSITIONS:

The laboratory of Dr.  Samira Kiani  is seeking a postdoctoral fellow with skills in molecular biology  and synthetic biology who is interested in developing novel immuno-therapy tools. Successful candidates will adapt the CRISPR technology and intersect it with synthetic biology to develop controllable gene-based immune therapies
 
Desired Skills and Experience
Ph.D. in molecular biology or a related field. Experience in advanced molecular cloning techniques, including golden gate, gateway, Moclo and similar techniques are required; Applicants should have motivation and drive to work independently and creatively. Great organization skills, attention to details and ability to work within tight deadlines are required. Interested applicants should submit a CV and a list of 3 references in a single PDF file to samira.kiani@pitt.edu.
