About this position

The Rajagopalan Lab at Virginia Tech is seeking a postdoctoral associate to join research in the Department of Chemical Engineering in Blacksburg, Virginia. The appointment centers on engineering biomaterials-driven approaches for building complex 3D tissues and organoids, with a strong emphasis on assembling engineered tissue systems using iPSC stem-cell-based methodologies.

The role is research-intensive and combines experimental design, biomaterials development, and tissue engineering practice. The successful candidate will contribute to the design and assembly of 3D tissues and organoids, while also handling data management and the dissemination of scientific results. The project is positioned within an environment that encourages cross-disciplinary collaboration, including opportunities to work with AI/ML researchers and biologists through the NSF COMPASS center.

This postdoctoral research sits within a major land-grant university with broad research activity and a transdisciplinary culture. The advert highlights a setting that supports collaboration across engineering, biology, and computational research, making this a strong fit for a researcher interested in biomaterials, organoid systems, and collaborative translational science.

Funding details

Salary starts at $63,480 per year, commensurate with experience; 40 hours per week.

What's required

PhD in Chemical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, Biological Sciences, Chemistry, or a related field. The PhD must have been awarded no more than four years before the effective date of appointment, with at least one year of eligibility remaining. Applicants should have background and knowledge in tissue engineering or organoid development, biomaterials, and cell-based methodologies, along with a track record of scientific productivity and publications. Experience managing multiple projects simultaneously is required. Preferred qualifications include experience with induced pluripotent stem cells, prior multidisciplinary project experience, and the ability to work independently and collaboratively across disciplines. The role also requires the ability to stand, walk, stoop, and bend for long periods and to wear personal protective equipment.
