RA/postdoc position open!

【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.

【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.
