[Open Positions] CiRA Project for Discovering and Nurturing Future Independent Researchers
The purpose of the "CiRA Project for Discovering and Nurturing Future Independent Researchers" is to identify young researchers with the potential to conduct world-class research and become academic leaders. Under this project, CiRA is seeking junior associate professors (PIs) as follows.
We call for research proposals, which are progressive and distant from conventional ideas, from a wide range of scientific fields. We especially seek applications from researchers who are aiming to pioneer a new life science.
Each of the successful candidates will receive:
- a mentor faculty to support and advise research activities
- a research assistant (a part-time researcher, technical staff, etc.)
- access to shared research facilities (common equipment, Facility for iPS Cell Therapy,
Animal Research Facility, etc.)
- access to CiRA's support staff including offices responsible for medical applications,
intellectual properties, acquisition and management of research funding, etc.
Anyone who earned his/her Ph.D. in medicine, dentistry, pharmacology, science, or engineering within the last 7 years (approximately), can apply for the positions. Research experiments or achievements related to iPS cells are not required.
Please check the application guideline for details.
We are looking forward to your application.
