Current Opportunities

Postdoctoral Research Fellows
We welcome inquiries from highly motivated researchers interested in developing independent questions at the interface of neutrophil biology, inflammation, aging, and disease. Candidates with expertise in immunology, cell biology, extracellular vesicles, advanced imaging, flow cytometry, animal models, or related areas are particularly encouraged to contact us.
Please include:
-
A cover letter describing your previous research, future scientific interests, career goals, and why you are interested in joining the Hsu Lab
-
Curriculum vitae (CV)
-
One representative publication
-
Contact information for three references

PhD Students
We welcome prospective PhD students interested in neutrophil biology, inflammation, immune aging, extracellular vesicles, cell biology, and host–pathogen interactions.
PhD admissions are administered through the graduate programs at the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine. Prospective students interested in joining the Hsu Lab are encouraged to contact us before applying.
Please include:
-
A brief cover letter describing your research interests, career goals, and why you are interested in joining the Hsu Lab
-
Curriculum vitae (CV)
-
Academic transcript

Research Assistants
We welcome inquiries from candidates interested in gaining intensive research experience in immunology and cell biology while contributing to the development of a growing laboratory.
Please include:
-
Brief cover letter
-
CV
-
Contact information for two references

Undergraduate Students
NUS students interested in undergraduate research projects, undergraduate research opportunity (UROP), or Final Year Projects (FYP) are welcome to inquire about available opportunities in the lab.
Please send a brief statement describing your research interests together with your CV or résumé.
Ready to Join Us?
We are excited to train the next generation of scientists.
We are especially interested in scientists who are curious, rigorous, collaborative, and excited to develop their own scientific questions.
Previous experience in neutrophil biology is not required. We value strong scientific thinking and enthusiasm for understanding how immune cells function in health and disease.
Trainees are encouraged to develop intellectual independence while benefiting from close mentorship and the collaborative research environment at NUS.

Scientific Independence
We empower trainees to pursue their own ideas and grow as independent scientists.

Collaborative Culture
A supportive and inclusive environment that values teamwork and open communication.

Mentorship
Hands-on guidance and career development at every stage of your training.

Impact
Our work connects basic discovery with translational relevance to human health.

Training & Research Environment

Mechanistic Discovery
We investigate fundamental principles of neutrophil biology in inflammation, aging, infection, and tissue repair.

Disease Models
Integrated use of in vitro systems, mouse models, and human samples to study disease mechanisms.

Advanced Approaches
Cutting-edge technologies including single-cell analysis, imaging, extracellular vesicle biology, and multi-omics.

Human Translation
Bridging basic science with clinical relevance to advance our understanding of immune-mediated diseases.
