About The Position
The Tang Laboratory at the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School is seeking highly motivated and creative Postdoctoral Fellows to join our interdisciplinary team developing innovative RNA-based therapeutics for skin diseases. Our laboratory is focused on advancing next-generation oligonucleotide technologies to address unmet medical needs in dermatology. We combine principles of RNA biology, biomedical engineering, drug delivery, and skin biology to develop transformative therapeutic strategies, including siRNA, antisense oligonucleotides, and other RNA-based modalities. Our research aims to understand disease mechanisms in the skin and translate rationally designed oligonucleotide therapies from discovery toward clinical applications. Research areas include: Engineering novel oligonucleotide platforms for topical and systemic delivery to skin tissues, Developing RNA-based therapeutics for inflammatory and autoimmune skin disorders, Investigating molecular mechanisms underlying skin health and disease, Discovering new RNA regulatory pathways relevant to dermatological conditions. The Tang Laboratory is committed to fostering scientific independence, career development, and the training of future leaders in biomedical research.
Requirements
- A Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent doctoral degree in biomedical sciences, molecular biology, pharmaceutical sciences, bioengineering, immunology, RNA biology, or related fields
- Strong research experience in one or more of the following areas: RNA biology and therapeutics, Drug delivery systems, Skin biology, immunology, or disease models, Bioengineering or related disciplines
Responsibilities
- Engineering novel oligonucleotide platforms for topical and systemic delivery to skin tissues
- Developing RNA-based therapeutics for inflammatory and autoimmune skin disorders
- Investigating molecular mechanisms underlying skin health and disease
- Discovering new RNA regulatory pathways relevant to dermatological conditions
