The Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) trains doctors who put patients at the centre of their exemplary care. The School, which offers both undergraduate and graduate programmes, is named after local philanthropist Tan Sri Dato Lee Kong Chian. Established in 2010 by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, in partnership with Imperial College London, LKCMedicine aims to be a model for innovative medical education and a centre for transformative research. The School’s primary clinical partner is the National Healthcare Group, a leader in public healthcare recognised for the quality of its medical expertise, facilities and teaching. The School is transitioning to an NTU medical school ahead of the 2028 successful conclusion of the NTU-Imperial partnership to set up a Joint Medical School. In August 2024, we welcomed our first intake of the NTU MBBS programme, that has been recently enhanced to include themes like precision medicine and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare, with an expanded scope in the medical humanities. Graduates from the five-year undergraduate medical degree programme will have a strong understanding of the scientific basis of medicine, with an emphasis on technology, data science and the humanities.

LKCMedicine is recruiting a Research Fellow under Assoc Prof Yasunori Saheki to achieve our KPIs, such as publishing papers and presenting findings in conferences, proposed for the research projects in the lab. The role will focus on the overall successes of the ongoing projects, in particular the ones require iPSCs, in the lab.

Key Responsibilities:
- Carry out an independent research project and collaborate with other researchers.- Supervise junior members of the lab, including graduate students and undergraduate interns.- Keep a log of lab materials as necessary (e.g., cell lines, plasmid DNAs, proteins, _C. elegans_ strains, and other essential reagents).- Present research at lab meetings and national/ international conferences.

Key Competencies and Requirements:- Self-motivated and well-organized with good communication and technical skills.- Experience in either one of the following fields: cell biology, mice or invertebrate genetics, imaging and/ or biochemistry (e.g., protein purification, _in vitro_ reconstitution) is essential.- Be able to work independently and collaborate effectively in a highly diverse and interdisciplinary team.
