This postdoctoral fellowship within the Hyun Jung Kim Lab at Cleveland Clinic focuses on advancing microbiome research through organ-on-a-chip platforms. The role involves investigating how gut microbes influence colorectal cancer therapeutics or model gastrointestinal diseases like inflammatory bowel disease. Key responsibilities include utilizing patient-derived organoids, performing microbial biochemistry and enzymology, and collaborating with physician-scientists to elucidate host-microbiome mechanisms. The position offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of synthetic biology, disease modeling, and translational medicine within a collaborative research environment. Candidates with a PhD or MD/PhD will gain practical training in a high-impact setting dedicated to transforming the patient experience.
