postdoctoral position — neural crest migration
Posted by synie, on 9 September 2014
Closing Date: 15 March 2021
A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Shuyi Nie at Georgia Institute of Technology. The lab employs multiple approaches including developmental biology, cell biology, imaging, and biochemistry to study the mechanisms of neural crest cell migration during embryonic development. Potential projects are investigating the regulation of cranial neural crest cell migration by actin cytoskeletal regulators and the roles of transcriptional factors in cardiac neural crest migration, etc. The lab is well funded with extramural grants and Gatech start-up.
We are looking for highly motivated researchers with training in development biology, molecular biology, or cell biology. Experience in frog or chick embryology, genomics or confocal microscopy are preferred but not required.
For more information, contact Shuyi Nie (shuyi.nie@biology.gatech.edu). Please send a brief statement of scientific/research interests, your curriculum vitae, and a list of 3 references.
