Posted by Ross Poche, on 9 April 2015
Closing Date: 15 March 2021
A postdoctoral position is available immediately to study the transcriptional regulation of retinal progenitor cell proliferation and its interface with cellular bioenergetics. Our lab utilizes a multi-disciplinary approach that combines traditional mouse developmental genetics and molecular biology with live, dynamic tissue imaging and high throughput genomics. The ideal candidate for this position will be within a year of completion of her/his PhD and have expertise in mouse genetics, cell biology, protein and mRNA analysis, recombinant DNA technologies and bioinformatics. Expertise in retinal development, ChIP-seq, 2D-gel Mass Spec. and the characterization of metabolic phenotypes is also highly desirable.
We are a young and vibrant research group located at Baylor College of Medicine within the Texas Medical Center in Houston. Being in the largest medical center in the World has the advantage of fostering a very collaborative research environment and we firmly believe that merging scientific expertise and interests ultimately drive innovation. Therefore, highly creative, independent, but also interactive applicants are particularly encouraged to apply.
