Postdoctoral Researcher- Je lab.
The Je lab at Duke-NUS Medical School is seeking a Postdoctoral Scientist to model neural disorders using iPSCs. The successful candidate will have some experience in stem cell biology. They will have a demonstrated aptitude to be a leading author on peer-reviewed publications, provide innovative solutions to research problems, and can apply for fellowship/scholarship awards.
The Je lab focuses on understanding the fundamental mechanisms that lead to neural disorders and identifying new therapeutic targets for these diseases. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) derived from patient cells, genomics, CRISPR/Cas9 based genome editing, genomics, proteomics, small molecule screens, single-cell analysis, and electrophysiology are all technologies applied to deepen our understanding of uncurable neural disorders (Jo et al., Annals of Neurology, 2021; Cho et al., Nature Comm, 2021; Kwak et al., Stem Cells, 2020, Sun et al., Science, 2019.).

Key responsibilities
• Participate in innovative research aimed at understanding the role of genetic aberrations in rare neural disorders (syndromic autism, familial Parkinson’s disease, familial Alzheimer’s diseases, and other rare neural disorders).
• Focus on developing protocols to generate specific subtypes of human-induced neurons and brain organoids with single-cell genomics and functional validation.
• Collaborate with a biologist at Duke-NUS for developing standardized protocols and experimental design.
• Perform data analysis, annotation, protocol (IRB/IACUC/GMAC) preparation, pathway analysis, visualization, and machine-learning-based imaging and data analysis.
• Attend and participate in institutional programs, seminars, and lab meetings.
Education
Ph.D. in cell biology, stem cell biology, neuroscience, chemistry, or other related fields.
Experience
Excellent cell culture skills.
Background in hESCs and iPSCs.
Experience in stem cell biology and CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing. CRISPRa or CRISPRi based screening is a plus.
Demonstrated ability to be a leading author in peer-reviewed publications.
Work well in an interdisciplinary team of scientists.
Self-motivated and collaborative.
