Post Doc - Open Rank - Lawson Lab

A postdoctoral position is available in the Lawson Lab at UMass Chan Medical School. The Lawson Lab uses the zebrafish as a model system to study vascular and lymphatic development. Current areas of emphasis include transcriptional regulation of mural cell development and modeling vascular anomalies. In the course of our studies, we routinely develop and apply cutting edge techniques, including live imaging, genome editing, and conditional genetics. An overview of our past and ongoing research can be found at our website (http://lawsonlab.umassmed.edu).

Applicants must be highly motivated and technically accomplished as documented by exceptional publication record. Candidates must have demonstrated experience in molecular biology. Experience with developmental model systems is preferred.

Please email CV and reprints of relevant publications to the contact information below. Applicants accepted for initial consideration will be subsequently contacted for letters of reference.
