Job Description
The Mechanobiology Institute (MBI) at the National University of Singapore (NUS) is a leading multidisciplinary institute devoted to developing new paradigms for understanding biological functions in health and diseases from the perspective of cell, tissue and organ mechanics/dynamics and mechano-signal transduction. The institute operates on a fully integrated open-lab philosophy, with an extensive infrastructure supported by core facilities dedicated to technology such as state-of-the-art light microscopy, nano- and micro- fabrication, and computing.
The MBI is currently inviting applications from outstanding candidates for the Senior Research Scientist position. Particularly, the MBI seeks applicants with a commitment to both independent and collaborative interdisciplinary research in the area of mechanical and dynamical processes in tissue growth and morphogenesis.
Qualifications
Relevant experience in the study of tissue growth and morphogenesis, or mechanobiology in general, is highly desirable, as is an established track record in group leadership, mentoring, grantsmanship, and high impact publications. The successful candidate is expected to carry out research that complements and synergises with the core expertise of research currently being carried out in MBI and NUS. The successful candidate is also expected to establish collaborative, multidisciplinary research projects that actively integrate and leverage the expertise of principal investigators at MBI.
