POSITION SUMMARY: Biomedical Microdevices Lab (BML), led by Dr. Melikhan Tanyeri at Duquesne University, is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral research associate to contribute to a cutting-edge project focused on studying intra- and intercellular mechanotransduction. The successful candidate will play a crucial role in developing and employing a novel microfluidic platform to study the transmission of mechanical signals between cells, specifically from cell-cell junctions to the nucleus, at the single cell level. Through this project, we aim to gain a deeper understanding of how mechanical forces influence nuclear organization and gene expression, with potential applications in various
