Description

POSTDOCTORAL POSITIONS AVAILABLE
LUNG DEVELOPMENT & STEM CELL BIOLOGY PROGRAMS
PULMONARY CENTER, BOSTON UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE

Postdoctoral Positions are immediately available to study mechanismsinvolved in early lung morphogenesis and cell fate determination. Ourresearch interests include the role of miRNA pathways in lung branchingmorphogenesis, characterization of early developmental programs in lungprogenitor cells during formation of the lung primordium, and the roleof retinoic acid, Fgf, heparan sulfate proteoglycans and Notch in theseprocesses. Approaches, such as genetically modified mouse, organ andcell culture systems, genome wide expression profiling, large scale insitu hybridization and RNAi are routinely used in these studies. Pleasesee our recent publications and webpages for further information:Development, 133:1611-24 (2006); BBRC, 334:319-23 (2005); J.Biol.Chem.May 11(2007); Development 134, 2969-79 (2007); J.Biol.Chem.280:4934-4841 (2005).

Self-motivated individuals trained in areas of mouse genetics,developmental, functional genomics and molecular biology are encouragedto apply. Skills and experience in mouse stem cell biology, large scalescreen approaches and bioinformatics are desirable but not required.Boston University is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer.
