Job Description
Join Dr. Hsin-Jung Yang and their research group as a Postdoctoral Scientist!
The Biomedical Imaging Research Institute (BIRI) is an interdisciplinary research program dedicated to developing and applying state‑of-the-art imaging technologies to today’s most pressing translational research and clinical questions. Our team collaborates closely with physicians and leading imaging researchers worldwide, uniting technical and clinical expertise in cardiology, neurology and oncology. We prioritize educating and training future imaging leaders.
The mission of the Yang Lab is to develop advanced imaging solutions for pathological activities in the heart and noninvasively detect, diagnose and monitor cardiovascular diseases. The team has developed cutting-edge MRI technologies, which include a needleless method for myocardial ischemia detection named cardiac fMRI (cfMRI). cfMRI utilizes oxygenation-sensitive MRI signal and controlled coronary artery stimulations to detect impaired coronary artery function without ionizing radiation, exogenous contrast agents and pharmacological stress agents. The needleless approach provides millions of patients with potential myocardial ischemic diseases a minimum risk solution for examining their coronary circulation without the potential harm from the standard clinical exams. To learn more, please visit Yang Lab | Cedars-Sinai.

Who's Hiring
Top Industries Hiring
- Education
What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in biomedical scientist jobs.
- Bachelor's or master's degree in biomedical science, medical laboratory science, or a related life science field
- ASCP Board of Certification (BOC) or equivalent credential such as AMT or NCA
- Proficiency with laboratory instrumentation including analyzers, PCR platforms, and microscopy systems
- Knowledge of CLIA regulations, CAP accreditation standards, and laboratory quality management systems
- Experience performing and documenting test method validations and proficiency testing
- Familiarity with laboratory information systems and electronic data management software
Tips for Your Biomedical Scientist Job Search
Tailor your resume to lab certifications
Many biomedical scientist postings screen for ASCP or AMT certification before reviewing experience. List your credential abbreviation and board year near the top of your resume so hiring managers and ATS systems flag your application immediately.
Highlight specific instrumentation you have operated
Employers expect fluency with named platforms like flow cytometers, PCR systems, or hematology analyzers. Generic phrases like 'lab equipment experience' get skipped. Name the exact instruments and software you have used in each role.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists biomedical scientist openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target postings by accreditation type
Hospital labs, reference labs, and research facilities each require different regulatory knowledge. CAP and CLIA compliance appear in hospital postings, while FDA GMP and GLP show up in pharma and biotech. Match your resume language to the accreditation type the employer mentions.
Prepare a method validation example for interviews
Interviewers for biomedical scientist roles frequently ask you to walk through a validation study or troubleshooting scenario you have handled. Prepare one concrete example with the assay type, the problem you encountered, and the corrective action you took.
Negotiate your on-call and shift expectations upfront
Many clinical lab positions include weekend or rotating shift requirements that do not appear clearly in job descriptions. Ask during the offer stage which shifts the role covers and how on-call compensation works, before you accept.
Biomedical Scientist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most biomedical scientists?
The most active employers for biomedical scientists right now are UTHealth Houston, Novartis, and Umass Lowell, and the most openings are in Texas, Massachusetts, and New York, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is especially concentrated in hospital health systems and national reference laboratory networks.
How many biomedical scientist jobs are remote?
About 0% of biomedical scientist openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the hands-on nature of most laboratory work. Remote opportunities are most common in regulatory affairs, bioinformatics, clinical data review, and medical science liaison roles that do not require bench work.
How do you become a biomedical scientist?
Start by completing a bachelor's degree in biomedical science, clinical laboratory science, or a closely related discipline, making sure the program includes supervised clinical rotations. After graduation, sit for a national certification exam such as the ASCP BOC. Entry-level positions in hospital or reference labs build the bench experience needed to advance into specialized or senior scientist roles.
How do you get hired as a biomedical scientist with little experience?
Focus on roles labeled 'generalist' or 'medical laboratory scientist I,' which are structured for new graduates. Completing your ASCP certification before applying removes a common screening barrier. Clinical rotation hours from your degree program count as hands-on experience, so list the instruments and assay types you used during training rather than leaving that period blank on your resume.
What does the biomedical scientist interview process look like?
Most employers run two to three stages: an initial phone or video screen with HR, followed by a technical interview with the lab director or department supervisor, and sometimes a working interview or bench demonstration. Technical questions typically cover troubleshooting, quality control interpretation, and regulatory knowledge. References and a background check are standard before an offer is extended.
Where can I find and apply to biomedical scientist jobs?
You can find and apply to biomedical scientist jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Find roles that match your specialty and experience level, then apply directly to each listing from the same place.
