Job Title:
Postdoctoral Fellowships in Drosophila Genetics, Chromatin Structure and Function
Job Description:
NIH-funded postdoctoral positions are available immediately at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the laboratories of Dmitry V. Fyodorov and Arthur I. Skoultchi.
The studies will focus on the biological functions of linker histone H1 in development, gene regulation and maintenance of chromosome architecture (Lu et al., 2009, Genes Dev. 23, 452-465). The projects represent cutting-edge, high-impact research that integrates fly genetics, protein biochemistry and genomic analyses.
Seeking highly qualified applicants with a strong background in Drosophila genetics, cell and molecular biology. However, in our selection of candidates, we will emphasize overall scientific abilities and potential rather than specific techniques. Candidates must have Ph.D. degree or equivalent and possess strong independent research abilities with ambitious scientific interests, self-motivation and the ability to work effectively with a team.
Successful candidates will be offered generous salary and benefits, including school-subsized postdoctoral housing in a pleasant residential neighborhood near the medical school. To apply, please send a CV with a brief description of research experience and career goals, plus contact information for three references to:
