JOB DESCRIPTION |
|
The Postdoctoral Associate will 1) explore the roles of MEF2 transcription factors in striated muscle metabolism; and 2) address alternative splicing of MEF2 as a means to specify function. Efforts will expand on previous cell-based work (J Biol Chem 280: 28749-28760, Mol Cell Biol 24: 8264-8275, J Biol Chem 283: 10318-10329, J Biol Chem 283: 11935-11946) and will involve the development of both mouse models and cell-based assays to evaluate MEF2 splicing isoform function and regulated expression.
The ideal candidate will have a strong background in one of the following areas: mouse genetic models, alternative splicing, bioinformatics, or metabolism. Candidate should be capable of planning, executing and analyzing experiments and should be willing to acquire new skills independently.
The successful candidate must possess a Ph.D. in biochemistry or cell molecular biology. Interested applicants should submit a cover letter, CV, contact information for least 2 references and a Research Accomplishment/Interest Summary as a single PDF or Word document to: Dr. Tod Gulick at tgulick@burnham.org, or by clicking 'Apply for this job'.
