• Present and communicate research findings to the scientific community.
• Assist with the design and execution of stem‑cell and animal model experiments.

Required profile

• Strong interest in cardiometabolic and regenerative cardiology research.
• Experience with pluripotent stem cells and cardiovascular progenitor‑mediated repair.
• Hands‑on experience with small (rodent) and large (pig) animal models.
• Ability to work collaboratively in an academic‑industry environment.

Required skills

• Stem cell culture and manipulation.
• Animal model experimentation (rodents, pigs).
• Molecular biology techniques for cardiac regeneration studies.

What we offer

• Opportunity to contribute to translational research with potential clinical impact.
• Access to state‑of‑the‑art facilities and interdisciplinary collaborations.
