About this position

Open postdoctoral researcher / visiting researcher positions are available in the Komatsu Lab at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), Department of Surgery, Transplant Surgery. The lab focuses on transplantation and regenerative medicine with a strong translational emphasis, especially diabetes cell therapy, islet transplantation, stem cell-derived pancreatic islet transplantation, pancreatic organoids, and oxygen physiology in transplanted cells.

The research environment is interdisciplinary and connects surgery, metabolism/endocrinology, biology, and engineering. Current projects include improving engraftment efficiency, reducing patient burden through minimally invasive transplantation approaches, optimizing oxygen supply to transplanted cells, and developing technologies to address donor shortages. The lab also collaborates broadly with UCSF centers and external partners in the United States and Japan.

Applicants should hold, or be expected to obtain, a doctoral degree in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, science, or engineering. Experience in molecular biology, animal modeling, engineering, biomedical research, cell culture, and protein/RNA/DNA analysis is especially welcome. Basic software skills and statistical analysis ability are required, and English communication skills are necessary because English is the common lab language.

Funding is described as salary over USD 65,000 per year depending on experience, with full-time fixed-term employment for 2-3 years and possible extension.
