A post doctoral position is available immediately to study the regulation
of DNA damage responsive genes in S. cerevisiae. Our approach is to use
classical genetic, molecular, and biochemical approaches to identify
damage responsive transcriptional regulators and the components of the
signal transduction pathway that impinge upon these regulators. Previous
experience in molecular techniques and/or yeast genetics is highly
desirable. My
laboratory group currently consists of two post docs, a graduate student,
and a technician, and each person in my lab has their own project. Salary
is commensurate with previous training and is competitive for academic
postdoctoral positions. My laboratory is located within the Department of
Biochemistry and Biophysics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel
Hill. This is in the Raleigh-Durham-Research Triangle Park area which was
recently cited as the best place in the country to live.
Persons interested in this position should send their CV, including the
names and telephone numbers of three references, to me at the
following address:
