WHO WE ARE
The California Institute for Biomedical Research (Calibr) is a not-for profit research institute located in La Jolla, California. Calibr is focused on innovative early stage translational research in collaboration with academic partners in the areas of regenerative medicine, cancer biology, cardiovascular and metabolic disease, immunology and infectious disease.
THE POSITION
The California Institute for Biomedical Research (Calibr) is seeking talented Postdoctoral Fellow candidates to join a dynamic, interdisciplinary team of scientists focused on early stage translational research for tissue repair/remodeling. Postdoctoral Fellows will work as part of a team of scientists to identify and characterize small molecules or proteins that modulate novel biological pathways or processes and represent new therapeutic approaches to unmet medical needs.
