About this job
We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher for a high-reward, collaborative project at the intersection of synthetic biology, metabolism, and active matter physics. For over a century, the Warburg effect—aerobic lactate production—was viewed as a strictly cell-intrinsic necessity for proliferation. Leveraging our newly engineered "Warburg-null" mammalian cell lines, this project challenges that paradigm to test a radical new hypothesis: that this metabolic rewiring actually drives emergent, collective behaviors at the multicellular scale. The successful candidate will lead the experimental charge to causally link metabolic perturbations to multicellular dynamics, utilizing optogenetic control, metabolic sensors, and physical modeling to uncover how energy flow reshapes…
