About this position

Rice University Bioengineering is recruiting a Postdoctoral Associate to join a newly funded NIH CATALYZE project focused on developing genetic therapies for heart disease.

The project brings together CRISPR-based gene regulation, cardiovascular biology, cellular bioenergetics, and preclinical therapeutic development through collaboration between Rice University and Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas.

The postdoc will be appointed in Rice University Bioengineering and co-advised by Isaac Hilton and Ravi Ghanta, working closely with Mario Escobar and researchers across both institutions.

Ideal candidates have strengths in one or more of the following: mitochondrial and/or cardiovascular biology, in vivo research and preclinical therapeutic development, or gene regulation and therapeutic delivery. The team values scientific rigor, creativity, independence, and collaborative spirit, and welcomes interest in biotechnology entrepreneurship.

This is a translational research opportunity with strong interdisciplinary training across engineering and medicine. Applications are being reviewed now and will continue until the position is filled.

Apply via the Rice University link in the post.
