Developing 3D Printed Lung Models

We are seeking a highly skilled researcher to join our team at the Woolcock Institute of Medical Research and contribute to the development of an artificial respiratory model that integrates airway replicas with 3D bioprinting.

Background

Inhaled therapies have been a cornerstone in the treatment of patients living with chronic respiratory diseases. However, the lack of a predictive in vitro platform that can accurately mimic the physiological conditions and inhalation processes of the respiratory tract has hindered the translation of promising inhaled drugs to the clinic.

Research Objectives

The successful candidate will be responsible for developing an artificial respiratory model that can assess the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of novel inhalation therapeutics in vitro. The study will also validate the use of the model by testing different inhalation therapies and comparing them to industry-approved testing methodologies.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and develop an artificial respiratory model that integrates airway replicas with 3D bioprinting
  • Conduct in vitro testing of novel inhalation therapeutics using the developed model
  • Validate the use of the model by testing different inhalation therapies and comparing them to industry-approved testing methodologies
  • Collaborate with the research team to develop and implement the research plan

Requirements

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in respiratory research, bioprinting, and pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. They will also have excellent communication and collaboration skills, as well as the ability to work independently and as part of a team.
