Senior and Junior Level Scientist Positions in Stem Cell Research
Stem Cell & Regenerative Medicine International (“Stem International”) is seeking innovative and motivated senior level scientists to join its world-renowned research team in Marlborough, Massachusetts. As a newly formed joint venture between Advanced Cell Technology and CHA Biotech of Korea, Stem International is a powerful partnership of scientific expertise and capabilities focused on achieving the first clinical application of stem cell therapies. Led by pioneers in the stem cell field, we offer a dynamic and challenging work environment in a state-of-the-art research facility.
Senior and Junior Level Scientists
We are seeking two (2) full time Senior and Junior Level Scientists in stem cell and hematopoietic cell biology. Successful candidates will have PhD or MD, PhD/MD degree with hematopoietic cell or human ES/iPS cell research background of at least 1-3+ years of experience in an academic or R&D environment. Experience in human ES/iPS cells of in vitro differentiation, especially mesoderm progenitor differentiation a plus. One position is responsible for investigating the generation, maturation and enucleation of red blood cells derived from hES/iPS cells (see Lu et al: Generation of functional hemangioblasts from human embryonic stem cells. Nature Methods, 4: 501-509, 2007; Lu et al: Biologic properties and enucleation of red blood cells from human embryonic stem cells. Blood, 112:4475-4484, 2008; Feng et al: Hemangioblastic derivatives from human induced pluripotent stem cells exhibit limited expansion and early senescence. Stem Cells, 28:704-712, 2010). Another position is responsible for the generation of functional megakaryocytes/platelets from human ES/iPS cells (see Li et al: Large scale generation of functional megakaryocytes from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) under stromal-free conditions. Blood, 114: Abs. 2540, 2009). The candidate must be creative, independent, highly organized, reliable, with demonstrated ability to initiate and carry out projects, trouble shoot, and quickly learn new skills.
