About this position
The Division of Molecular Skeletal Biology at Lund University is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher to join the Cell, Tissue and Organ Engineering group led by Dr. Paul Bourgine.
The project is centered on understanding bone formation as a complex developmental process that involves the coordinated establishment of cartilage, vasculature, bone, and bone marrow. The Bourgine lab aims to build human-specific knowledge of these stages in order to support the development of innovative regenerative therapies.
In this role, the postdoctoral researcher will contribute to the development of novel culture systems for tissue engineering and will investigate cellular and molecular events associated with endochondral ossification. The work also involves the isolation and differentiation of primary human cells, with additional responsibilities depending on the needs of the project.
The post will be carried out within a research group that emphasizes a positive, respectful, and inclusive working environment, and the position is based on site in Lund within Lund University’s research environment.

What's required
A PhD or equivalent degree in Biology or Bioengineering is required and must be completed by the time of the employment decision. The position requires documented postdoctoral experience in different laboratories, at least three first-author peer-reviewed publications, documented experience in vascular biology and vessel engineering, strong experience with 3D culture applied to ossification, robust laboratory and analytical skills, and the ability to work both independently and in an interdisciplinary team. Candidates must have robust experience culturing and differentiating human primary cells in 2D and 3D, experience with microfluidics and microscopy, experience prototyping with AutoCAD, and good written and spoken English. Preferred merits include experience with human mesenchymal cell culture and differentiation, a background in biomaterials science and/or polymer synthesis, experience with 3D printing/additive manufacturing and associated software, and experience as an executive member of scientific societies.
