Job Description

RESEARCH SCIENTIST, Chemical Engineering, to join an active lab conducting research in the intersection of mechanistic modeling and systems engineering This is a multi-million-dollar project funded by the FDA (Development of an Integrated Continuous cGMP Facility for mRNA Manufacturing).  Will build mechanistic models and control systems for multiphase flow-based nanoparticle formation. The models will be constructed for a process involving multiple liquid streams containing multiple components that impinge on each other in either laminar or highly turbulent flow, create a nanoemulsion in a confined environment. The modeling for the nanodroplets that are formed will then model the transition of the nanodroplets into the formation of solid lipid nanoparticles. The controls will be for the characteristics of the nanoparticles. Will participate in the coordination of project work and know-how between investigators and MIT collaborators as outlined in the project scope. This may include interactions with subcontractors and partners from the FDA. Will perform other duties as assigned.  

REQUIRED: Ph.D. in chemical engineering, mathematics, computer science, or related field; experience with experimental and simulation tools for biopharmaceutical process development, including for biotherapeutic antibodies.; ad proven ability to manage projects and meet deadlines. PREFERRED: five years of related postdoc experience. Job #22314
