About this position

Imperial College London is recruiting a postdoc for the Elani Lab on an ARIA-funded programme in mitochondrial engineering.

The project focuses on developing methods for encapsulating bacteriophages within lipid compartments using high-throughput microfluidic platforms and a membrane chemical biology toolkit. The successful candidate will work closely with Symbiosis Labs to help pioneer novel bacteriophage-based approaches for mitochondrial editing.

Relevant backgrounds include liposome technologies, drug delivery, membrane chemical biology, microfluidics, synthetic biology, and related fields. The post is based at Imperial College London in London, United Kingdom, within a large collaborative ecosystem involving academic laboratories and a deep-tech startup.

This is a postdoctoral research opportunity rather than a scholarship. No deadline was stated in the post. Interested applicants should use the Imperial job link or contact the poster for more information.
