Postdoctoral Position : Alternative Translational Models for Precision Medicine

The Alternative Translational Models group for Prevision Medicine and New Approach Methodologies focuses on developing and utilizing precision cut tissue slices on chip technology to create more accurate and physiologically relevant disease models for various applications. Our reserach involves using these models for toxicity screening, therapeutics evaluation, diagnostic applications, and more. We also conduct pharmacokinetics studies to better understand drug behavior in a complex, tissue-specific environment. The advertised position will specifically focus on the study of precision cut brain slices to develop drug delivery systems that can effectively cross the blood-brain barrier for the treatment of glioblastoma tumors in animal and patient tissue models. By bridging the gap between preclinical and clinical research, our work aims to enhance the precision and effectiveness of treatments, providing a more personalized approach to medicine.

Desirable Skills :

• Strong analytical and problem solving skills.
• Ability to work independently as well as part of a multidisciplinary team.
• Knowledge of mathematical models.

What We Offer :

• An opportunity to work with leading experiments in the field of alternative translational models, nanomedicine, and 3D models.
• Access to state of the art facilities and resources.
• A dynamic and collaborative work environment.
• Professional development opportunities and mentorship.
