Dundee, Dundee City, United Kingdom University of Dundee Full time

We are recruiting for an exceptional individual to join us as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow within the Madsen Group, to lead on a systems biology project that seeks to develop and characterise a novel iPSC-based model system for quantitative studies of phenotypic plasticity in the context of genetic PI3K activation. This is a fixed-term appointment for 2 years, with opportunity for extension for another 2 years. The post is funded by a UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship to Dr Madsen.

The successful applicant will play a leading role in the development and characterisation of a novel induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-based disease model system, iPIK3CA-CC. Co-designed with collaborator Joshua Breunig (Cedars-Sinai Medical Center), this system will enable high-precision, quantitative control of genetic PI3K pathway activation and studies of lineage-specific phenotypic plasticity.

This is a rare and exciting opportunity for an ambitious, bold and creative postdoctoral researcher who will benefit from the acquisition of highly competitive, interdisciplinary skills. These include iPSC culture, state-of-the-art gene engineering, molecular lineage tracing, quantitative single-cell phenotyping (scATACseq, scRNAseq, CyTOF, high content imaging), as well as multi-omic data processing and integration.

Your priorities will include:

  • Genetic engineering of iPSCs using the MADR system (PMID: and MemorySeq barcodes (PMID:
  • Multi-omic single-cell phenotyping and data processing
  • Preparation of high-quality publications
  • Internal and external oral presentations
  • Rigorous experimental design

Who we're looking for:

  • You are a systems thinker with an interest in quantitative biology
  • You are unafraid of tackling interdisciplinary challenges as part of a team
  • You are committed to research integrity and open knowledge sharing
  • You plan and prioritise own work to meet deadlines
  • You use initiative to develop and lead research projects

We are one of the UK's leading universities, internationally recognised for our expertise across a range of disciplines and research breakthroughs in multiple areas, including science, medicine and engineering, amongst many others. Our purpose is to transform lives, locally and globally, which we do as a community of staff (Professional Services and academic Schools), students and alumni. Professional Services directorates are key to delivering the University strategy and driving change across the University.
