Fellowships

Training the next generation of innovators

The Institute is developing ‘personalized’ solutions that utilize micro- and nanoscale technologies and functional biomaterials to enable a range of therapies for tissue and organ regeneration, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer.

To enable this vision, the institute works closely with clinicians including interventional radiologists, cardiologists, and surgeons.

Directed by Dr. Ali Khademhosseini, the institute has numerous projects including the use of patient-derived stem cells to engineer tissues and cell-based therapies; organ-on-a-chip systems that aim to mimic the human physiology and pathology for drug screening in a personalized manner; and functional biomaterials and microdevices.


The Terasaki Institute seeks to recruit, flourish, and retain exceptional researcher fellows with outstanding talent and technical skills.

The Fellows will help advance the Institute’s vision and output in biomedical innovation. The Fellowships are intended for brilliant applicants with outstanding expertise and achievements who received their PhD or MD degree within the last five years. Salary will be commensurate with experience. Project start date: Immediately.

We are primarily seeking candidates in the areas below, but exceptional candidates in other areas will also be considered:

Immune Engineering
Synthetic Biology
Biosensing and Organ-on-chip Devices
Biomaterials
Stem Cell Engineering
