Postdoc position

A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Sophie Astrof to study roles of cell-extracellular matrix interactions in cardiovascular development and disease using mouse model system. The research will involve investigation of the role of extracellular matrix in orchestrating signaling/communication between various progenitor cell populations during morphogenesis of the aortic arch arteries.  In our lab, we use genetics, conditional mutagenesis, and transgenic approaches to explore roles of tissue microenvironment during organogenesis and disease. Experience with genetic manipulation, embryology and cell biology is desirable.  My laboratory is a part of the Center for Translational Medicine at Jefferson Medical College (http://www.tju.edu/jmc/medicine/translational_medicine/faculty/astrof.cfm?detail=0) located in the heart of Philadelphia. To apply, send a letter of interest, CV and names and contact information of three references to sophie.astrof@gmail.com
