Employment Mentoring and training the next generation of creative scientists and inventors in the field at the intersection of synthetic biology, developmental and stem cell biology is a top priority of the Morsut Lab. Our goal is to help each and every lab member fulfill their maximum potential. All lab members will have the opportunity to investigate questions that interest them and to give and receive mentorship to others in the lab. For more details, see the Morsut Lab Philosophy page.

If you are looking for a position as a postdoc , please send an email to us ([email protected], and copy [email protected]) with a cover letter describing your past and future projects, career goals, what you hope to get out of the Morsut Lab, and what you hope to bring to the Morsut Lab.
