About The Position

The Wyles Lab in the Center for Regenerative Biotherapeutics and Mayo Clinic Department of Dermatology has an opening for a postdoctoral fellow interested in studying the association between cutting-edge biomarkers of skin aging and 3D bioprinting skin tissues. In this role, the candidate will lead independent projects on studying the molecular and cellular mechanisms of skin senescence in human models, specifically related to tissue engineering 3D skin models and wound patch development. Prior experience in tissue bioprinting and/or tissue engineering required. A Research Fellow at Mayo Clinic is a temporary position intended to provide training and education in research. Individuals will train in the research program of a Mayo Clinic principal investigator. Qualified individuals will demonstrate the potential for research as evidenced by their training and peer-reviewed publications and should become competitive for national research grants.
