About this position

The Benoit Lab at the Knight Campus, University of Oregon, is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar to join their innovative research team in the Department of Bioengineering. The lab focuses on developing next-generation tissue-engineered periosteum (TEP) to enhance the healing of challenging bone defects, integrating expertise in polymer chemistry, hydrogel design, stem cell biology, and in vivo models. The successful candidate will lead the synthesis of multifunctional materials, conduct mechanistic biological studies, and contribute to high-impact publications and proposals.

This project is part of a broader mission to design advanced biomaterials using bottom-up approaches, with applications in regenerative medicine and therapeutic discovery. The lab environment offers exceptional intellectual and technical resources, individualized training in communication, entrepreneurship, and professional development, and access to state-of-the-art facilities.

Applicants should hold a Ph.D. in chemistry, biology, engineering, or a related field, with demonstrated research productivity and laboratory experience in bioengineering or related disciplines. Strong communication skills are essential. Preferred qualifications include experience with grant writing, small animal surgery, musculoskeletal regeneration, histology, biomechanics, flow cytometry, and live animal imaging. All offers are contingent upon a successful background check.

The University of Oregon provides a robust benefits package, including health insurance, retirement plans, and paid time off. The position is open until filled, with review of applications beginning February 20, 2026. Interested candidates should submit a CV and cover letter via the University of Oregon careers portal. The Benoit Lab is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and encourages all qualified individuals to apply.

Key research areas include biomaterials, polymer chemistry, tissue engineering, hydrogel design, stem cell biology, regenerative medicine, and therapeutic discovery. The lab is led by Professor Danielle Benoit, an expert in bioengineering and materials science.
