Post-doctoral Fellow in Biomedical Sciences

The School of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Hong Kong invites applications for a full-time Post-doctoral Fellow to join a collaborative research initiative. Working under the supervision of Professor Stephanie Ma, the appointee will engage in translational research projects examining novel cancer therapeutics and targeting cancer stemness, utilizing hepatocellular carcinoma as a primary model system. Candidates will execute experimental studies semi-independently while collaborating within a multidisciplinary research team. The position is offered for an initial duration of two years with potential renewal subject to performance and funding availability.

• Design and execute translational research experiments focused on novel cancer therapeutics and cancer stemness.
• Utilize hepatocellular carcinoma models to investigate targeted molecular therapies.
• Perform cell and organoid culture, cellular and molecular biology assays, protein characterization, and flow cytometry.
• Conduct animal studies and manage experimental workflows with meticulous attention to detail.
• Collaborate effectively within a multidisciplinary research team and communicate scientific findings clearly.
• Prepare research manuscripts for publication and assist in scientific writing.
