Job Description

The May Lab at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is seeking a highly motivated and creative postdoctoral fellow to join our team exploring how niche-epithelial interactions guide organ development and regeneration.

Our research combines in vivo genetic models, in vitro organoid systems, advanced imaging, and high-dimensional sequencing approaches to uncover fundamental principles by which the innate immune system directs the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying exocrine gland and airway biology.

Position Description

The successful candidate will lead projects aimed at dissecting the behavioral dynamics of tissue-resident macrophages in exocrine systems and define macrophage-mediated regulation of gland organogenesis and repair. The position offers an exciting opportunity to work at the interface of developmental/stem cell biology, immunology, and computational systems analysis in a highly collaborative and multidisciplinary environment.

Qualifications

Required:

  • PhD (or nearing completion) in developmental biology, immunology, cell biology, biomedical sciences, or a related field
  • Familiarity with immune cell profiling and/or epithelial biology Strong experience with in vivo model systems (e.g., mouse models, genetic manipulation, lineage tracing, tissue collection)
  • Experience with in vitro organoid and/or cell culture techniques
  • Demonstrated research productivity, including one or more first-author publications
  • High motivation, independence, and ability to work effectively both in a team and individually

Preferred:

  • Experience with flow cytometry
  • Proficiency in computational biology, including analysis of single-cell and/or bulk sequencing data (preferably using R)
  • Experience with advanced microscopy techniques

Environment

The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai offers an exceptional environment for postdoctoral training, with access to state-of-the-art core facilities, vibrant interdisciplinary scientific and clinical collaborations, and robust career development resources. Postdoctoral fellows are eligible for Mount Sinai-subsidized housing located in the heart of Manhattan.
