Human iPSC culture and directed cardiac differentiation
Multicellular cardiac organoid engineering
3D bioprinting
CRISPR‑based genome editing
Single‑cell transcriptomics and spatial omics
Advanced imaging and quantitative image analysis
Functional assays for cardiac physiology and cell–cell interactions
This position offers a unique opportunity to lead high‑impact research projects, contribute to manuscripts in top‑tier journals, and develop an independent scientific vision within a highly collaborative environment. The lab is embedded within a vibrant scientific community at Emory, providing exceptional access to core facilities, clinical collaborators, and career development resources.
Qualifications
PhD or MD/PhD in stem cell biology, developmental biology, bioengineering, cardiovascular biology, or a related field
Strong track record of research productivity
Experience with iPSCs, organoids, 3D bioprinting, CRISPR‑based genome editing or cardiac biology is highly desirable
Excellent communication, teamwork, and problem‑solving skills
What We Offer
Training in state‑of‑the‑art organoid and stem cell technologies
Opportunities for collaboration with clinicians and scientists across Emory, CHOA, Georgie Tech, and the broader Atlanta research community
Support for career development, conference travel, and preparation for independent funding
A supportive and dynamic lab environment committed to scientific excellence, mentorship, and growth
Highly motivated candidates who are passionate about understanding human cardiac development and disease are strongly encouraged to apply.
