Santiago Correa

Columbia University’s Correa Lab is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher in extracellular vesicles (EVs) and/or lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulation for a project on hybrid nanomaterial platforms that combine cell-derived and synthetic components for cancer immunotherapy . The position is in the lab of Santiago Correa , Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Columbia University. The lab also lists related postdoctoral openings in CAR-T cell biology and biomaterials , plus general postdoc applications for candidates with external funding. Research areas and keywords: extracellular vesicles, lipid nanoparticles, biomaterials, immunoengineering, cancer immunotherapy, nanomaterials, CAR-T cell biology, T cell immunology, materials science, organic chemistry. Funding: this EV/LNP postdoc is supported by the Beckman Young Investigator Award , which provides four years of funding for the postdoc and research expenses. The post mentions a salary starting at $72,000 with full benefits, and notes that Columbia postdocs are unionized. Eligibility highlights: applicants should have a strong background in EV biology and/or LNP formulation. Deep expertise in one area is acceptable; experience in both is not required. The lab emphasizes an interdisciplinary environment, mentorship, and the opportunity to broaden skills while contributing to a project at the interface of nanotechnology and immunotherapy. How to apply: email a CV, cover letter, and references to [email protected] with the subject line "Beckman Postdoc Application: [Your Name]" . The full opportunity details are linked in the post. Additional lab information: the Correa Lab’s opportunities page also states that PhD student recruitment for Fall 2026 depends on fundraising, and that the lab is currently not taking on master’s students.
