Title: Postdoctoral PositionInstitution: Jackson Laboratory for Genomic MedicineLocation: Farmington, CTSend: Cover letter and CV with contact information for three references The Ucar lab is seeking motivated computational scientists interested in studying how epigenomes of human immune cells change with age and diseases including COVID-19. We use diverse approaches in genomics, bioinformatics, systems biology and immunology to understand how epigenetic regulation of gene expression programs are disrupted by genetics and environment. We are seeking highly-motivated individuals who have prior experience with …
Dr. Sheng Li’s lab at The Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine (JAX-GM) in Farmington, CT is currently seeking motivated scientists interested in single-cell and spatial omics. The Li Lab focuses on integrative mining of single-cell, spatial, and long-read multi-omics data and deep learning algorithms development to understand epigenome dynamics and gene regulatory network during cell fate transition, aging, and cancer. Our Postdoctoral Associates enjoy distinct advantages, including: Advanced research in spatial, single-cell, long-read multi-omics Robust CPU and GPU high-performance computing …
Postdoctoral Associate – Manipulating exercise-responsive circuits for neuroprotection. Bloss Lab Bar Harbor, ME A postdoctoral associate position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Erik Bloss at The Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine, to perform basic research investigating the mechanisms by which exercise-responsive circuits may be manipulated to prevent structural and functional decline of cortical synapses during aging and in mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease. This work will include chemogenetic and optogenetic manipulations of neural activity in aging mice …
Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Korstanje lab The Korstanje lab studies the genetics underlying several forms of kidney disease, in particular modifier genes that affect the progression of Alport Syndrome, Polycystic Kidney Disease, and Diabetic Kidney Disease. The lab is seeking a postdoc to study the role of several proteins and microRNAs, both in cell culture and in mouse models, that have recently been associated with the progression of Diabetic Kidney Disease. Responsibilities: Motivation and curiosity, and the desire to see …
