[대학원장학] Postdoc Positions 모집공고 (Dr. Yi Zhang’s lab at Harvard Medical School and Boston Children’s Hospital)

Postdoc Positions available in Dr. Yi Zhang’s lab at Harvard Medical School and Boston Children’s Hospital

The Zhang lab has recently relocated to Harvard Medical School and Boston Children’s Hospital. In association with the move and lab expansion, several postdoc positions are available.

The current lab interests are centered on understanding the mechanism and function of epigenetic regulation in stem cell, reprogramming, and brain functions.

The lab is interested in recruiting ambitious and highly motivated postdoctoral research associates to participate in the cutting age research in one of the following areas:

1) Developing new techniques for single cell analysis of DNA methylation and locusspecific histone modification studies;

2) Investigating the molecular mechanism of egg-mediated reprogramming;

3) Investigating the epigenetic mechanism of mouse preimplantation development with the emphasis on the earliest events that lead to the first cell lineage commitment;

4) Investigating the epigenetic contribution to brain learning and memory as well as reward related addiction;

5) Identification and characterization of new epigenetic modifications.

Previous experience in preimplantation embryo manipulation, micro-injection, neurobiology related areas or bioinformatics is preferred, but not required. Interested person should visit the lab web site http://zhanglab.tch.harvard.edu/lab.htm and send your application to Dr. Yi Zhang (yzhang@genetics.med.harvard.edu).
