POSTDOCTORAL POSITION
An NIH-funded postdoctoral position is available in my lab
beginning January 1995. Lab interests center on the interplay between
transcription factors and chromatin, principally using yeast as a model
organism [see Science 262, 1563 (1993); Mol. Cell. Biol. 12, 4015 (1992)].
Interested applicants should contact Randy Morse at:

The Wadsworth Center is a branch of Dept. of Health which supports
both applied (TB screening, etc.) and basic research. My lab is housed in
the 2-year old Axelrod Institute which is generously equipped with
state-of-the-art instrumentation and supported by media services, glassware
cleaning, etc. A recent expansion of the Wadsworth has brought in a number
of new faculty, who together with older faculty represent a variety of
research interests (transcription factors in Drosophila and yeast,
heterochromatin structure, transposition in yeast and prokaryotes, intron
homing) make for a highly stimulating scientific environment. Albany is,
granted, cold in the wintertime. However, as a medium sized city it offers
many of the cultural advantages of larger cities without some of the
negative aspects (less crowded, lower crime, more affordable), and is a
very pleasant place to live.
