A postdoctoral position is available to study the genomics of leiomyoma formation (uterine tumors, fibroids) and non-invasive diagnostics. The laboratory utilizes transgenic animals that model Med12 mutation, known to associate with 70% of human leiomyomas, to study the origin of leiomyomas, genomic rearrangements, epigenomics, and cell types. Moreover, the laboratory is also analyzing human leiomyomas for cellular heterogeneity and non-invasive diagnostics. The laboratory utilizes molecular and cellular biological techniques, whole exome and genome sequencing, chromosomal microarrays, CRISPR-generated humanized mouse animal models, and targeted knockouts. The candidate will also be exposed to human and animal experimentation.
Job Requirements:
Candidates should have a Ph.D. in biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, or related fields; experience with the reproductive tract is preferred but not essential. Experience with transgenic mouse models and basic molecular biology techniques are desirable.
