Postdoctoral position-Mansour Laboratory-University of Utah
Posted by Suzi, on 3 June 2015
Closing Date: 15 March 2021
My laboratory has an open position for a postdoctoral fellow to work on NIH-funded projects involving FGF signaling in auditory supporting cell differentiation in the mouse model. The ideal candidate should have at least two years of graduate or postdoctoral research experience in perinatal/postnatal inner ear development, including anatomic, molecular and functional analyses, with strong publications (can be pending) in these areas. Experience with mouse genetics is not absolutely required, but is a big plus. Stipend will follow NIH guidelines and the candidate will be mentored through the process of applying within two years of the initial appointment for individual support (stipend and/or newly developed project) as appropriate. In addition, presentation and networking opportunities include participation in the weekly Human Genetics Research in Progress series and the monthly Inner Ear Research Group, which comprises multiple labs with diverse interests.
E-mailed inquiries (suzi.mansour[at]genetics.utah.edu) should include a brief (< 1 page) current research description, a Biosketch, and the names and contact information of two individuals (current PI and one other), who can be contacted to comment on your suitability for this position. The position can start as early as July 1, 2015.
