New information USA scholarship on BEHAVIORAL ECOLOGY OF SAILFIN AND AMAZON MOLLIES
Teaching/Research Assistantship for M. S.

Applications are being sought for one student interested in pursuing an academic career studying various aspects of the behavior of sailfin and Amazon mollies starting no later than June 2008. Amazon mollies, Poecilia formosa, are a unisexual (all female) species of molly that are essentially sexual parasites as they require sperm from the closely related bisexual sailfin molly, P. latipinna but don?t use it to fertilize their eggs.

Conflict exists between male sailfin mollies that prefer to mate with conspecifics and the Amazon mollies that require matings with these males. We have three months of summer funding for a Research Assistant to work on some aspects of this system and can supply Instructional Assistant (teaching labs) for the fall and spring terms.

New information USA scholarship on POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP MOUSE GENETICS HEMOSTASIS AND THROMBOSIS.

A post-doctoral position is available for a highly motivated candidate with 0-3 years post-doctoral experience who has a strong background in molecular biology, genetics, and mouse models of disease. The research involves studies of modifiers of thrombosis in mice. The position is in the Cardiovascular Research Institute at the University of California, San Francisco. The lab studies hemostasis and thrombosis in mice. We are interested in novel pathways influencing risk of thrombosis. We make use of forward genetic studies to screen for genes or pathways influencing thrombosis. We are also interested in sex as a modifier of thrombosis. Here, we focus on the well-described effects of growth hormone sex differences in liver gene expression.

New information USA scholarship at Lab of Aniruddha Das.
Columbia University, Dept of Neuroscience.

Applications are invited for post doctoral positions to study the cortical mechanisms underlying early visual processing. There are currently three projects in the lab:

We have developed a technique for dual-wavelength optical imaging in the alert monkey, simultaneously measuring blood volume and oxygenation. Using this, we have discovered a novel, stimulus-independent anticipatory response in V1 that brings fresh arterial blood to cortex in expectation of predictable visual tasks. We are currently exploring the functional consequences of this novel cortical response.
Using the same optical imaging technique in alert monkeys we find nonlinear interactions amongst visual elements in V1, appropriate for parsing visual scenes into simple visual forms – contours, textures, simple shapes. The second project relates these measured nonlinearities to the animals’ reported perceptions of the same visual forms.
Using a novel technique for measuring tuning in fMRI signals we find, in human fMRI, some of the same tuned nonlinear neuronal interactions that we see in monkey optical imaging. This allows us to relate monkey physiology to more complex human perceptual tasks.
