About the role

What if your science could improve the lives of billions of people, every day, across every stage of life? Skin and scalp biology is one of humanity's most universal and enduring dimensions of health and wellbeing. It accompanies us from infancy through adolescence, adulthood, and healthy aging, shaping how we protect and care for ourselves and our loved ones.

The scientific challenges are equally diverse and compelling: supporting skin barrier health in early life, understanding the biological transitions of puberty, enabling superior shaving, grooming, and body care experiences, addressing lifelong scalp disorders such as dandruff, combating hair loss, understanding the biological impacts of menopause, and ultimately unlocking healthier skin and scalp aging throughout longer lifespans. New interventions such as GLP-1 therapies, regenerative medicine approaches, and hair transplantation are further transforming consumer needs and creating unprecedented opportunities for scientific discovery and innovation.

The launch of the Skin Bioscience Discovery Accelerator (SBDA) at the P&G Singapore Innovation Center represents a bold commitment to seize this opportunity and shape the future of skin and scalp science. Combining world-class bioscience, advanced experimental systems, multimodal data, computational biology, and AI-enabled discovery, the Accelerator aims to create a fundamentally new engine for innovation in skin and scalp health.

This is an invitation to ambitious scientists who want their work to matter beyond the laboratory. You will join a global ecosystem of scientific excellence and work closely with P&G Research Fellows, senior technical leaders, and internationally recognized experts located in Singapore and across P&G's worldwide R&D network. Through mentorship, collaboration, and exposure to some of the company's most accomplished innovators, you will tackle frontier scientific challenges while developing the skills and perspective needed to lead the next generation of discovery. If you are driven by scientific excellence, inspired by large-scale impact, and motivated to tackle some of the most important unanswered questions in human biology, we invite you to help shape the future of skin and scalp health for billions around the world.

This 2-year Postdoc position will explore how skin and scalp function as adaptive biological systems that maintain health, resilience, and visible performance throughout life. By combining advanced biology and AI-enabled discovery, the program seeks to uncover the fundamental mechanisms that govern how these systems evolve from infancy through healthy aging. This is a unique opportunity to pioneer a new understanding of skin and scalp across the human healthspan.

Key Responsibilities

• Pioneer new scientific frameworks and discovery approaches to advance understanding of biological performance, resilience, regeneration, and health across the lifespan.

• Design and execute high-impact research programs leveraging advanced biology, human-relevant experimental systems, multimodal data, and AI-enabled discovery.

• Work alongside P&G Research Fellows and global scientific leaders to shape scientific strategy and accelerate breakthrough discovery.

• Operate within a Design-Build-Test-Learn discovery environment, integrating experiments, computational approaches, and emerging technologies to drive continuous learning.

• Translate breakthrough discoveries into publications, intellectual property, external collaborations, and technology opportunities with global consumer impact.

Job Qualifications

• PhD in Skin Biology, Systems Biology, Dermatology, Cell Biology, Regenerative Medicine, Biomedical Sciences, Computational Biology, or a related discipline.

• Scientists currently completing, or having recently completed, a postdoctoral appointment in a relevant field are also encouraged to apply.

• Demonstrated research excellence through high-quality publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals.

• Strong expertise in one or more relevant biological domains, including:

  • Skin biology, biochemistry, and physiology

  • Barrier biology

  • Epithelial tissue biology

  • Inflammation and immune regulation

  • Aging biology and longevity

  • Wound healing and tissue repair

  • Extracellular matrix and dermal biology

  • Regenerative medicine

• Hands-on experience with advanced experimental techniques and biological model systems.

• Strong analytical and quantitative problem-solving skills.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to present complex scientific concepts to multidisciplinary audiences.

• Self driven with demonstrated ability to work independently while contributing effectively within cross-functional teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with advanced imaging technologies and image analysis.

• Experience generating and interpreting multi-omics datasets.

• Familiarity with computational biology, bioinformatics, statistics, machine learning, or AI-enabled biological discovery.

• Experience working with complex biological systems and systems-level approaches to understanding health and disease.

• Experience developing, applying, or interpreting advanced in vitro, ex vivo, or engineered tissue biological models.

• Experience integrating biological, imaging, and computational datasets to generate mechanistic insights powered by AI.

• Knowledge of skin aging, barrier dysfunction, inflammation, or visible skin health.

Ideal Candidate Profile

We are particularly interested in scientists who:

• Are motivated by solving bold, high-impact scientific challenges rather than incremental research questions.

• Thrive in highly interdisciplinary environments spanning biology, data science, engineering, and artificial intelligence.

• Are intellectually curious and energized by complexity.

• Demonstrate creativity in connecting ideas across scientific disciplines.

• Are passionate about translating biological discoveries into meaningful consumer impact.

• Aspire to build new scientific frameworks rather than operate solely within established paradigms.

• Are excited by the opportunity to shape the future of skin and scalp science and improve the lives of billions of consumers worldwide.

What Will Make You Stand Out

• A track record of pioneering new methodologies, models, or scientific concepts.

• Experience working at the interface of biology and data science.

• A desire to help define the next generation of AI-enabled bioscience discovery.

• Evidence of scientific leadership, innovation, and independent thinking.

• Demonstrated ability to translate complex biological observations into actionable hypotheses.

• A strong interest in adaptive biological systems, resilience, aging, and biological performance.
