This postdoctoral position at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań focuses on studying pancreatic organoids derived from type 2 diabetes patients using multi‑omics approaches. The researcher will differentiate human stem cells into pancreatic beta cells, apply CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing, and perform single‑cell RNA sequencing, proteomics, lipidomics, functional assays, and microscopic imaging. The project, funded by the National Science Center’s OPUS program, collaborates with groups in Helsinki and aims to advance cell and gene therapies for diabetes.
This post‑doctoral position is part of the ERC‑funded SHAPE project at the Programmable Polymers Center of Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. The project aims to design abiotic enzymes—synthetic macromolecules that catalyze reactions where natural enzymes fail—by combining organic chemistry, polymer science, and machine learning. Researchers will work on sequence‑defined polymers, automated synthesis, and catalytic motif integration to create selective biocatalysts for challenging environments.
