TWO Postdoctoral Fellowship Positions available
Biology of RNA Metabolism in Eukaryotes
National Institutes of Health (NIH), Bethesda, Maryland
The Fellows will investigate molecular mechanisms involved in RNA
metabolism (this may include links between transcription, RNA
processing, nuclear transport, and translation). Fission yeast serve
as a model system to study human as well as yeast factors. We also
use in vitro biochemistry, mammalian tissue culture and genetically
altered mice. Laboratory approaches integrate cell biology,
molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry and structural biology.
As an applicant, you should submit a cover letter that details your
specific interest in the specific research areas described above and
as reflected by the publications from the Maraia lab (search PubMed
for "maraia r*". Candidates must hold a Ph.D. or M.D. and have less
than 5 years postdoctoral experience. Expertise in molecular
biology, genetics and/or biochemistry is required, as are strong
letters of personal recommendation. The successful candidate will
confer regularly with the principal investigator but must incorporate
self-directed research, excellent technical, presentation, and
communication skills as essential parts of the job.
Send your cover letter, C.V., and the names of three references with
their email addresses and telephone numbers by Email to:
