Salk Institute
The Evans Laboratory at the Salk Institute seeks a highly motivated junior postdoctoral fellow to study differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells into pancreatic beta cells and islet-like organoids, evaluating their function, immune compatibility, and therapeutic potential. The fellow will develop and optimize differentiation protocols, characterize stem cell‑derived islet cells, and conduct transplantation studies in preclinical diabetes models, potentially involving genome editing and immune‑evasive organoid development.
