As a first-year graduate student, I had the good fortune of accompanying Dr. Pierre Rasmont (U. Mons, Belgium) and his lab group on an expedition to collect bumble bees in Turkey. At our first stop onto the dry but flower-rich volcanic lands, we each dispersed to collect bees. At the time I was working to[…]

We offer one fully-funded postdoctoral position up to five years in the Laboratory of Genome Integrity located at the National Institutes of Health (NHI/NCI, Bethesda, MD). Our laboratory uses human and mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) as well as mouse embryos to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the maintenance/exit of pluripotency and self-renewal. Understanding[…]

The Musculoskeletal Extracellular Matrix Laboratory (MEML) in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Colorado – Boulder is seeking an exceptionally creative postdoctoral researcher to investigate the mechanistic basis for how extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling directs regeneration in mammals. The project is a collaborative effort using spiny mice, an emerging model for mammalian[…]

A Research Fellow position is available at the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute to study how body proportions are regulated during normal development and after perturbation of growth of the long bones. The focus of research is on the communication mechanisms that operate between organs to maintain body proportions during development, especially those involving the circulatory[…]

Multiple NIH-funded Staff Scientist/ Research Associate and Postdoctoral Research Fellow positions are available in the Stottmann lab in the Divisions of Human Genetics and Developmental Biology. We are interested in the genetic basis of congenital craniofacial malformations. Projects are focused on characterizing novel genes and mutations identified through human whole genome sequencing. We use sequencing[…]

Research technician position available for a project focused on functional technique development in annelid worms, with a conceptual focus on evo-devo and regeneration biology. This position is part of an NSF-funded project focused on developing approaches to test gene function in post-embryonic (juvenile and adult) stages of several annelid species. The project is a collaboration[…]

This interview, the 67th in our series, was recently published in Development Most bones in the vertebrate skeleton are made in the same way – endochondrial ossification – yet they display a variety of shapes and sizes. The question of how these unique bone morphologies, including the superstructures that protrude from their surfaces, arise during development is[…]
