Eligible applicants will be seriously considered for T32 funding (a great way to begin to build your “independent” funding track record).
Lab is currently funded by 3 NIH R01s, as well as grants from American Heart Association and Alzheimer’s Association. Internal funds are also available.
Research in the laboratory includes the use of viral vectors, mouse models, microsurgery, cell culture systems, bioinformatics, genetic engineering and manipulation, and human tissues. Selected candidate is expected to work independently while interacting in a collaborative environment.
A Doctoral degree is required.
A strong research background in genetics, molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, and whole-animal physiology, as well as an excellent publication record are required.
