Postdoctoral Scholarship: MOUSE GENETICS HEMOSTASIS AND THROMBOSIS

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.



The candidate must meet the NIH qualifications for fellowship (A citizen or permanent resident of the United States), and must have a Ph.D. and/or M.D. degree. The candidate must be highly organized. He/she should possess excellent oral and written communication skills, and be able to work both independently and leader in a small but growing new lab. Interested candidates should send their curriculum vitae and names of three references to adress below:
