Research Assistant for Development of Organ-on-chip

hace 1 semana


Madrid, Madrid, España IMDEA materials A tiempo completo

DESCRIPTION:


To better understand the pathophysiology of disease and develop preventive and/or therapeutic measures, translational models play a key role in the pathway towards clinical trials and range from simple cell cultures through 3D organoids to animal models.

On the one hand, animal models are a standard method prior to human clinical trials, but these suffer from ethical concerns as well as physiological differences.

On the other hand, 2D and even 3D cell cultures, such as organoids, are easier to work with and significantly cheaper, but they often fail to recapitulate the complexity of the in vivo situation.

Within the last decade research into organ-on-chip devices has blossomed, including the development of lung
- and skin-on chip devices. These devices are typically integrated into bioreactors and further combined into high-throughput screening platforms involving data collection and analysis. Materials science plays a key role in the development of such 3D in vitro tissue models through the synthesis of biocompatible materials for use in the devices and their processing to create complex 3D geometries. We are looking for a research assistant to work on the fabrication of customizable organ-on-chip devices using additive manufacturing and to integrate them into microfluidic setups, followed by characterization of cell behavior in the devices.

REQUIREMENTS:

A high level of English (both oral and written) is mandatory. No knowledge of Spanish is required, although free lessons in both English and Spanish are provided.

CONDITIONS:

The expected start date is January 1, 2023.

The position includes a full-time contract with social security coverage.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The working language of the Institute is English. Full command of the English language is required in all positions.


Besides on-the-job technical training, IMDEA Materials Institute is committed to training the Institute's scientists and staff in "soft" or transversal skills.
