Expected Starting Salary Range: - salary aligns with NIH extramural postdoc payscales
Mingxia Gu’s Lab explores the role of vascular insufficiency in causing cardiopulmonary diseases, and to understand the genetic and epigenetic underpinnings of the variation in disease phenotypes and drug response in a personalized manner (for more details, check our recent publications in Circulation Research 2012, European Heart Journal 2015, AJRCCM 2017, Cell Stem Cell 2017, Cell Stem Cell 2020, Cell Stem Cell 2021, Science Translational Medicine 2021, Circulation Research 2022). The lab uses patient-specific iPSCs, vessel and lung organoids, machine learning, single cell RNA/ATAC sequencing, and spatial transcriptomics for disease modeling and high-throughput drug screening. Our team works together with developmental and stem cell biologists, data scientists, clinicians, bioengineers, and entrepreneurs with the common goal of accelerating discovery and facilitating bench-to-bedside translational science.
