Postdoctoral position-Mansour Laboratory-University of Utah
Posted by Suzi, on 3 December 2015
Closing Date: 15 March 2021
Our group has an opening for a postdoctoral fellow to work on NIH-funded projects involving FGF signaling in cochlear development, with a focus on auditory supporting and sensory cell differentiation in the mouse model. Candidates should have >2 years of graduate or postdoctoral research experience in inner ear development, including anatomic, molecular and functional analyses, with strong publications (can be pending) in these areas. Individuals with expertise in confocal microscopy of other developing and mature sensory systems with an interest in studying the ear are also encouraged to apply. Experience with mouse genetics is not absolutely required, but is a big plus. The stipend will follow NIH guidelines. Benefits include health and dental insurance. The successful candidate will be mentored through the process of applying within two years of the initial appointment for individual support (for stipend and/or newly developed project) as appropriate. Presentation and networking opportunities include a weekly Human Genetics Research-in-Progress series and a monthly meeting of the Inner Ear Research Group. There will also be an opportunity to attend at least one appropriate scientific conference per year.
If interested, please contact suzi.mansour@genetics.utah.edu and provide a very 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 Jan. 4, 2016, but other start dates are negotiable.
