Posted by Liz Robertson, on 2 September 2010
Closing Date: 15 March 2021
Grade 7 £28,983 – £35,646
We are seeking two Post-Doctoral Research Assistants for Professor Liz Robertson’s Wellcome Trust funded Research Group studying mammalian developmental biology at the Sir William Dunn School of Pathology.
Our programme focuses on defining the molecular cues responsible for cell allocation and tissue morphogenesis in the developing mammalian embryo. We have exploited transgenic and ES cell technologies to investigate the key signalling pathways and transcriptional networks that regulate expansion of diverse progenitor cell populations. Candidates with experience in construct design, high resolution imaging, cell sorting, microarrays, ChIP and/or proteomic approaches would be especially welcome. We are seeking well trained and ambitious scientists with good organisational and communication skills.
