Leung Lab
Positions Available
Applicants at all levels of education are welcome.
Postdoctoral Fellows
We are currently seeking qualified postdoctoral fellows with an interest in stem cells, tissue regeneration, and regenerative medicine. The fellow will design and perform experiments using a variety of model systems (mouse, tissue culture, 3D human tissue culture) and techniques (molecular, biochemistry, genetic, histology, and genomics).
Postdoctoral research in the lab commonly involves close interactions both within the lab and with collaborating groups at the University of Pennsylvania. Postdoctoral training includes participation in seminars and retreats of the Department of Dermatology and Institute of Regenerative Medicine. A major goal of our lab is to mentor and train fellows for future careers in academics and industry.
An MD and/or PhD in a science-related field, excellent written and verbal communication skills, and the ability to work interactively are required.
To apply, please email a letter of interest and a CV that includes three references to Dr. Leung.
Please include 1) a statement about your interest in our lab, 2) career goals and objectives, and 3) information about citizenship/residency/Visa status.
