A postdoctoral scientist position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Vincent Poitout at the University of Montreal.  The objective of this postdoctoral project is to unravel the mechanisms whereby RGS9 regulates hormone secretion from rodent and human islets. Methodologies to be employed include mouse islet isolations, adenoviral transduction of rodent and human islets, measurements of beta-cell proliferation by flow cytometry, assessment of hormone secretion in static incubations and perifusions, and immunohistochemistry. Please send a cover letter and curriculum vitae, including the names of three references to: Dr. Vincent Poitout.  

A Postdoctoral Associate position is available immediately at the Arthur Riggs Diabetes and Metabolism Research Institute (ARDMRI) at City of Hope National Medical Center. The position involves collaborative research with multiple faculty members at ARDMRI on projects involving genomics data analysis using single cell RNA-seq, CHIP-seq/ATAC-seq, spatial transcriptomics, HiC/HiCHIP, RIBO-seq and next generation long reads sequencing from Oxford Nanopore. The prospective candidate will participate in the development of new computational methods for downstream analysis of genomics data and multiomics integration. Interested candidates should apply by emailing their CV and a cover letter describing background and research interests to Dr. Supriyo Bhattacharya.  

A postdoctoral scientist position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Remi Creusot at the Columbia Center for Translational Immunology. The research will focus primarily on funded projects utilizing mice with human immune system in which novel antigen-specific immunotherapies for T1D will be evaluated. This position offers a unique opportunity to work in a highly multidisciplinary environment interfacing immunology, diabetes and immuno-engineering. A successful candidate will have a recent PhD in Immunology or related field and will have some experience with flow cytometry, in vitro / ex vivo immunoassays, and animal procedures (including surgery). Inquire by sending an email to Dr. Remi Creusot. 

Drs. Amish Asthana and Giuseppe Orlando are currently recruiting a Postdoctoral Fellow with PhD in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology, biotechnology, or bioengineering. The successful candidate will join a multidisciplinary team advancing a cutting-edge program that integrates 3D bioprinting and tissue-engineered organoids with regenerative medicine.  The lab’s central mission is to develop biomimetic constructs of pancreatic tissue and to identify novel strategies for enhancing vascularization and engraftment of biofabricated tissues following transplantation.  Interested candidates should submit their cover letter, CV, and contact information for three references to Dr. Amish Asthana and Dr. Giuseppe Orlando with the subject line: Postdoctoral Fellowship Application – Bioprinting and Regenerative Medicine.

The Kaestner lab is looking to fill two fully-funded postdoctoral positions for research projects related to the Human Pancreas Analysis Program (HPAP), which investigates the pathogenesis of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Preferred applicants will have: Strong Research and Development (R&D) skills, Experience with Laboratory Skills and conducting In Vivo experiments, Expertise in islet biology and molecular genetics, Ph.D. in Biology, or a related field, 0-3 years of experience in postdoctoral research. Please send a cover letter and curriculum vitae, including the names of three references, to: Dr. Klaus Kaestner (kaestner@pennmedicine.upenn.edu).

Washington University School of Medicine is seeking a motivated postdoctoral researcher to join Dr. Jeffrey Millman’s team. This researcher will lead an exciting new project focused on vascularized stem cell-derived islets for diabetes disease modeling and cell replacement therapy. Qualified candidates are encouraged to email Dr. Jeffrey Millman with their CV and cover letter.
