MatTek Corporation is a world leader in the emerging field of bio-engineered human tissue constructs. MatTek produces skin, corneal, bronchial and other human cell-derived organotypic tissues for use by international cosmetic, personal care, household product, pharmaceutical and biotech companies, as well as by academic researchers. MatTek's 3D tissue models enable genomic, proteomic, and drug delivery/discovery research not possible with traditional animal, monolayer cell culture or clinical test procedures.

At MatTek you will have an opportunity "to do well, while doing good". MatTek's in vitro models have helped reduce the number of animals used in research while enabling novel research methods that were previously not possible.

MatTek is actively recruiting new team members to help us serve our growing customer base and develop innovative products and applications to meet the needs of researchers in the new millenium.
