| Lab | Chen, Sheng-hong Research Assistant x 1 |
|---|---|
| Responsibilities | 【Research Focus】 The Lab for Cell Dynamics (LCD) at Academia Sinica explores the biological functions of large-scale cell death during embryonic development, integrating advanced quantitative and imaging techniques. Our recent work (PMID: 38987590) reveals how developmental signals prime cells for death and how this process might influence aging. We invite passionate junior scientists to join our team to investigate: 1.How developmental cues orchestrate cell death during development. 2.The potential link between developmental death signaling and the aging process. |
| Qualification | 【Who we are looking for】 We welcome candidates of all academic levels (B.Sc., M.Sc., or Ph.D.) who are: 1.Highly motivated to tackle meaningful, open biological questions. 2.Interested in state-of-the-art imaging techniques (e.g., multiphoton, in vivo imaging). 3.Open to using or learning AI-based computation, image analysis, and mathematical modeling. We value interdisciplinary backgrounds—applicants from biology, medicine, physics, engineering, or computational sciences are encouraged. Prior experience in quantitative biology (q-bio) is a bonus, but not required. |
| Salary | Compensation is based on Academia Sinica’s standards, with adjustments based on qualifications and experience. (> NTD 38388/mo for a Bachelor degree , > NTD 44968 for a master degree, and >$64711 for PhD degree) |
