Postdoctoral Associate Position | The Hattie Chung Lab
The newly launched Hattie Chung Lab at the Yale School of Medicine, Cardiovascular Research Center pioneers experimental and computational methods to study the principles of cellular heterogeneity that underlie tissue function in health and disease. We pioneer single-cell and spatial genomics technologies to study how the coordination of cell signaling across time and space impacts tissue function. Our applications span ovarian aging, cardiovascular disease, and drug response. For more information, please visit www.hattiechunglab.bio.
Responsibilities
We are seeking a postdoctoral associate to join our growing team. The successful candidate will spearhead the development and application of single-cell and spatial genomics methods to a mutually agreed upon focus area.
