Postdoctoral Fellow
Postdoctoral Researcher Position in Transcriptional Control of Neural Development Full-time
A postdoctoral training position is available in the laboratory of Jane Johnson PhD in the Department of Neuroscience at UT Southwestern Medical Center to study the transcriptional control mechanisms that contribute to neuronal lineage progression in vertebrates. Our laboratory has made significant contributions to the current understanding of the role of transcription factors in neuronal differentiation and neuronal subtype specification. These past discoveries have led to exciting new projects focused on dissecting mechanisms controlling 1) the transcriptional control of a key reprogramming factor in neural and neuroendocrine development and cancer, and 2) transcription networks that underlie neuronal diversity.
Candidates must hold a Ph.D. and/or M.D. degree. Experience in molecular biology, biochemistry, iPSC culture, mouse models, and/or regulatory genomics leading to publication in peer-reviewed journals is recommended.
