Topic: gene circuits

Doctoral research at the Department of Biosystems Science and Engineering will engineer human cells for therapeutic applications using synthetic biology. Projects connect gene circuits, biosensors and molecular engineering to control therapeutic proteins and develop programmable cellular implants. The research addresses cancer and metabolic, neurological, autoimmune and infectious diseases, with experimental and clinical collaboration. Applicants should be skilled in molecular and cell biology, including mammalian cell culture and engineering. Apply through the online portal with a CV, complet

A postdoctoral position at the Department of Biosystems Science and Engineering develops synthetic-biology approaches to human-cell therapies. Work combines molecular engineering, biosensing and gene circuits to monitor cellular states, regulate therapeutic proteins and produce programmable implant prototypes. Projects connect basic cell biology with translational work on cancer and metabolic, neurological, autoimmune and infectious diseases. The group seeks strong mammalian-cell engineering skills and a substantial publication record. Apply online with a CV, publication list, motivation lette
