Senior Researcher at the Biomaterials for Regenerative Therapies Group

Application Deadline: 27/05/2020
Ref: SR-EE

The Biomaterials for Regenerative Therapies group at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) is looking for a Senior Researcher to work on the development of new platforms for skin regeneration. The contract will be within the framework of nAngioderm, an Euronanomed project, whose objective is to develop devices based on nanotechnology and drug delivery tools able to address the healing of acute and chronic wounds.

PhD position at the Bioengineering in Reproductive Health Research Group

Application Deadline: 30/06/2020
Ref: PH-SO

How can we recognize which embryo is going to successfully implant in the mother’s uterus? How can we better understand pregnancy and improve in-vitro fertilization (IVF) procedures in the clinic to help couples that cannot conceive?

The Bioengineering in reproductive health group at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) is looking for a Predoctoral Researcher with (Bio) Physics or (Bio) Engineering background to join our multi-disciplinary team. Join us in answering these questions and developing a methodological toolbox for the IVF field, capable to reliably assess an embryo´s implantation and development potential!

This PhD project aims to address the above questions and develop an objective, quantitative imaging technology capable to discriminate competent embryos from unviable ones. The embryos exhibit endogenous auto-fluorescence which encodes the presence of different molecules related to the embryo’s metabolics and are crucial for the successful embryonic development. This project will focus on measuring these signals in a non-invasive way and assessing the embryo viability through subsequent image processing and statistical analysis.

Our laboratory is a multidisciplinary environment where biologists, biophysicists, clinicians and business developers synergize to create a unique environment shaped by science and entrepreneurship. Due to the high translational component of our research, we have established collaboration contracts with the pharma industry, hospitals and venture capital to bring our technology to the clinics and the market.

Junior Postdoc at the Regenerative Therapies Research Group

Application Deadline: 13/03/2020
Ref: PD-EE.2

The Biomaterials for Regenerative Therapies group at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) is looking for a Junior Post doc to work in a national funded project, whose objective is to develop biomaterials for cardiac tissue regeneration. Research in the Biomaterials for Regenerative Therapies group is devoted to the development and knowledge transfer to industry of innovative biomaterials and scaffolds for tissue regeneration.

Postdoctoral Researcher at the Bioengineering in Reproductive Health Open Lab


Application Deadline: 15/03/2020
Ref: PD-SO

The Bioengineering in reproductive health group at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) is looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher with experience in cell biology, stem cell technology and 3D culture. The project involves creating 3D organoids that mimic the endometrium (uterus tissue) to model the process of embryonic implantation in vitro.

Our laboratory is a multidisciplinary environment where biologists, biophysicists, clinicians and business developers synergize to create a unique environment shaped by science and entrepreneurship. Due to the high translational component of our research, we have established collaboration contracts with the pharma industry, hospitals and venture capital to bring our technology to the clinics and the market.

In our lab we use bioengineering methods to create 3D environments that support embryonic development outside of the mother uterus. Our systems are accessible to imaging tools which allow us to interrogate the genetics, metabolomics and mechanics of the embryo in a high throughput manner. Using our systems we are capable to (i) improve embryo culture conditions and (ii) diagnose embryos with improved implantation potential.

Senior Researcher at the Bioengineering in Reproductive Health Research Group


Application Deadline: 15/07/2020
Ref: SR-SO

The Bioengineering in reproductive health group at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) is looking for a Senior Scientist to develop a project in collaboration with the industry.

The project involves investigate the molecular mechanisms affected by specific chemical treatments on endometrial receptivity and on mouse and human embryos in culture. We aim to combine the expertise in microscopy of the lab with embryology tools to understand the morphological and molecular modifications that lead to an increase in endometrial receptivity. An ideal candidate will have experience in the mouse or human embryology field and will know basic tools of molecular biology. The candidate will have a great degree of independence to coordinate the project, competitive salary and funding to outsource several tests (i.e. sequencing, histology etc.).
