Postdoctoral Scientists
Positions available in Cardiac Systems Biology and iPSC’s and Human Cardiac Disease Modelling.
We are seeking PhD Graduates with training and experience in molecular and cellular biology and/or developmental biology.
This is an excellent opportunity to work on exciting projects where you will apply contemporary technologies to study heart development and the mechanisms of congenital heart disease pathology.
These projects include:
- Modelling genetic contributors to congenital heart disease in human induced pluripotent stem cells;
- Using genome-wide discovery tools and network approaches to understand the logic of transcription factor/cofactor binding and cis-regulatory architecture guiding heart development
The projects will be undertaken within the Cardiac and Developmental and Stem Cell Biology Division, in the laboratory of Professor Richard Harvey.
If you are looking for a career in research we can provide you with the opportunity for you to drive your own research projects.
Salary
Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience. Attractive salary packaging and superannuation options are available.
