Postdoctoral Research Scientist in Liver Models and Microfluidics

The Rouhani Lab, in collaboration with AstraZeneca, is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Scientist to lead the development of next-generation liver models. The position focuses on building and optimizing a microfluidic perfusion system designed to maintain patient-derived liver tissue in a functional state under physiological conditions. This cutting-edge project offers the opportunity to work with an outstanding Group Leader and to collaborate closely with AstraZeneca's Genome Engineering team. Key research areas include liver tissue engineering, microfluidics, and the application of advanced biomedical engineering techniques to create physiologically relevant organ models. The project aims to advance the understanding of liver biology and disease, with potential applications in drug discovery and personalized medicine. The Rouhani Lab is known for its innovative approach to organ-on-chip technologies and interdisciplinary research environment. Applicants should hold a PhD in biology, biomedical engineering, medical science, or a related field. Experience with microfluidic systems, tissue engineering, or organ-on-chip models is highly desirable. Strong collaborative and communication skills are preferred. The position is based in the UK, with AstraZeneca as the institutional partner. To apply, candidates should use the LinkedIn job posting link provided and follow the application instructions. This is an excellent opportunity for researchers interested in liver models, microfluidics, and translational biomedical research.
