Responsibilities
Dr. Chang's soft matter and microfluidics group at Mayo Clinic has an opening for a research fellow in the Department of Physiology and Biomedical Engineering. The Chang Lab (https://www.mayo.edu/research/faculty/chang-connie-b-ph-d/bio-20538304) focuses on the applications of drop-based microfluidics for projects funded by DoD, NIH, NSF, USDA, private foundation and industry. The central focus of the Chang laboratory at Mayo Clinic is understanding biological phenomena at the single-cell level. Our goal is to develop droplet-based microfluidic technologies that can improve medical diagnostics and clinical treatments for patients. Current research projects include the study of bacterial-immune cell interactions, single cell viral sequencing, microfluidic culturomics applied to the gut microbiome, microfabrication of novel devices, hydrogel synthesis, development of diagnostic platforms, cancer therapeutics, and infectious disease diagnostics. Experience or interests in microfluidics, optical microscopy, biomedical engineering, microfabrication, molecular biology, and/or genomics welcome. A background in biomedical or materials engineering, physics, biology, or molecular biology preferred. We value teamwork, promote diversity, collaboration, and respect, and are an inclusive and supportive laboratory.
