Postdoctoral position in morphogenesis and stem cell biology
Posted by Kaelyn Sumigray, on 9 November 2020
Closing Date: 15 March 2021
The Sumigray lab in the Department of Genetics at Yale School of Medicine invites applications for a postdoctoral scientist to work on an exciting project at the interface of cell biology, morphogenesis and stem cell biology. The successful applicant will have a strong background in cell and developmental biology, genetics and/or stem cell biology and a track-record of original and impactful research in biomedical science.
The Sumigray lab studies the molecular and cellular processes that drive intestinal crypt morphogenesis and the importance of crypt architecture on intestinal stem cell activity/function. We use a combination of in vivo and in vitro models combined with live imaging, confocal microscopy and next-generation sequencing. For more information about the lab’s research, please see sumigraylab.org.
Applicants should possess a Ph.D. in molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, genetics, or a related field. Experience in mammalian cell culture is preferred but not required.
Please submit i) a cover letter with a brief description of your research experience and motivations for joining the lab, ii) CV and iii) contact details for 2-3 references to Dr. Kaelyn Sumigray (kaelyn.sumigray@yale.edu).
