Mulitple postdoctoral positions available immediately to study the development, function, and aging of the thymus – Manley lab
My lab primarily uses transgenic and knockout mouse models to study a wide range of aspects of thymus biology, including the genetic control of fetal thymic stromal development and organogeneis, perinatal and postnatal organ structure and function, and the molecular and cellular mechanisms of thymic involution and aging-related immunosenescence. Available projects are also diverse and include transcription factor biology, affects of steroids, signaling pathways and transcription factor networks on the fetal and postnatal thymus. The best candidates will have expertise in some combination of developmental biology, transgenic and knockout mouse generation and analysis, immunology, and/or gene expression analysis including ChIP and microarray analysis However, I will consider highly qualified applications from candidates with a broad range of backgrounds. All positions are extramurally funded for a minimum of 2 years. Interested candidates should send cv and have three letter of reference sent by email to:
