About this position

Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) is offering multiple postdoctoral fellow positions in Professor Jia Liu's bioengineering lab. The available positions focus on two main research areas: Neuroscience for Brain-Computer Interfaces and Nanoelectronics/Flexible Electronics for biological and medical research.

The Neuroscience postdoctoral fellow will work on brain-computer interfaces, with research topics including animal behavior, tissue regeneration, multi-omics, and in vivo electrophysiology. Responsibilities include designing and executing animal experiments and analyzing multimodal biological data. Candidates should have a Ph.D. in neuroscience, electrical engineering, bioengineering, or a related field, and a strong publication record.

The Nanoelectronics/Flexible Electronics postdoctoral fellow will focus on designing and fabricating nanoelectronics and flexible electronics, with a requirement for significant cleanroom nanofabrication experience. The role involves collaboration with other researchers to apply these technologies in biological and medical contexts. Applicants should have a Ph.D. in a relevant field and proven expertise in nanofabrication.

Both positions require strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills, as well as the ability to work independently and collaboratively. The salary range is $67,600 – $91,826, depending on experience and qualifications. The application requires a curriculum vitae, cover letter, and list of references. Applications can be submitted through the Harvard Academic Positions portal or by emailing Professor Jia Liu directly at [email protected]. For further information, see the official postings linked above.

Harvard University is committed to equal opportunity and non-discrimination, welcoming applicants from all backgrounds. The lab's research interests span neuroscience, nanoelectronics, flexible electronics, bioengineering, and their applications in medical science.
