MDR Postdoctoral Researcher “Clinical translation of in situ tissue engineering”
Eindhoven University of Technology
Job descriptionAre you inspired by the potential to use degradable synthetic implants that are transformed into living tissues by the body itself? Are you eager to contribute to better and sustainable healthcare through innovative tissue engineering approaches? Are you passionate about working in a high-end collaborative and interdisciplinary research environment focused on clinical translation? Then you might be our next postdoctoral researcher in the Clinical Translation Platform for materials-driven tissue regeneration!About MDRis a partnership between Eindhoven University of Technology, Maastricht University and Utrecht University, University Medical Center Utrecht and the Hubrecht Institute. This consortium was brought together to advance tissue and organ regeneration approaches using instructive biomaterials. The MDR Research Center was awarded an 18.8 M€ grant in May 2017 by the Ministry of Education, Culture, and Science of The Netherlands in the framework of the .In this 10-year program the interdisciplinary team of researchers within the MDR consortium aims to focus on the research and development of new, intelligent materials that stimulate the regeneration of damaged or diseased tissues and organs. Three research flagships are defined according to hierarchical levels of increasing length scale and structural complexity. In order to strengthen our research center, we are recruiting highly motivated and talented people that would like to contribute in the interesting yet complex multidisciplinary area of Materials-Driven Regeneration.About the positionAs a postdoctoral researcher, you will contribute towards the careful, efficient, and ethical translation of our fundamental research findings into clinical applications. You will play a pivotal role in advancing our understanding of the mechanisms underlying tissue regeneration and implant integration in vivo, with a main focus on cardiovascular regeneration. Using these insights – gathered through analysis, reusing, and mining of our existing data – you will propose optimizations for materials for cardiovascular in situ tissue engineering that are one step closer to clinical application. As such, your research will also involve the comparison of current in vitro culture models and in vivo preclinical models, to assess their predictive power for future clinical outcomes.Responsibilities
