新加坡南洋理工大学Dr. Sing Yian CHEW实验室全奖博士招生

A PhD scholarship is available in the laboratory of Dr. Sing Yian CHEW at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, to a highly motivated candidate who has a passion for tissue engineering, scaffold design and drug/gene/cell deliveryresearch. This scholarship is applicable for Jan 2023 PhD intake and covers 4 years candidature.

The focus of this project is to design tissue scaffolds by advanced manufacturing methods (e.g. 3D bioprinting, electrospinning) to impart topographical signals and biochemical cues in the form of drug/gene/cell delivery to direct  tissue regeneration. We are seeking an individual who is interested in designing and characterizing novel biodegradable, biocompatible tissue scaffolds with controlled drug/ gene/cell delivery capabilities to direct cell response and soft tissue regeneration, characterizing scaffold-cell/tissue interactions, engineering factors that control the rate and extent of drug/gene delivery and scaffold degradation.

This position offers a unique opportunity to apply tissue scaffold engineering and controlled drug/gene delivery skills to neural tissue engineering and stem cell engineering, through strong collaborative efforts with multiple local and overseas academic institutes.

The candidate will be given opportunities and is expected to design and execute experiments independently. The candidate is also expected to interpret experimental results, and author papers in high-quality journals in areas that are related to the research. The candidate should demonstrate excellent communication skills and should have a strong passion and commitment to science. 

Requirements:

-Bachelor’s degree or Masters (preferred) degree with relevant background and experience.

-GRE & TOEFL scores or undergraduate scores meeting NTU’s Ph.D. program requirements

-Experience in scaffold design, fabrication and characterization, evaluation of cellular response with scaffolds using imaging, and functional assays is a plus.

-Strong ability to communicate effectively orally and in written form.

-Strong ability to perform self-directed work.

-Strong organizational skills and proactive personality with outstanding motivation, creativity, critical and analytical thinking skills, strong scientific commitment and ability to work as a team.

Review of applicants will continue until position is filled. Applicants should contact Dr. Sing Yian CHEW: sychew@ntu.edu.sg
