Job Description:
A funded post-doctoral position is immediately available for a person with knowledge of mouse mammary gland embryology and developmental biology. The project concerns the development of molecular genetic methods to identify, isolate and characterize putative stem cells in the developing mouse mammary gland. The ideal candidate would have experience with molecular and embryologic techniques such as immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, RNA-sequencing, single cell methods for transcriptional analysis, PCR, and mouse genetic manipulations. Above all, they should be intellectually curious, productive, and enjoy working in a committed team effort to make this important project succeed. The project is well under way due to the efforts of a dedicated group of post-docs, technicians and undergrads.

Education: PhD degree in Biological Sciences.

Experience: Required: Experience with bioinformatics, especially regarding analysis of RNA-seq data. Experience with molecular and embryologic techniques such as immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, RNA-sequencing, single cell methods for transcriptional analysis, and PCR. Preferred: Mouse genetic manipulations
Application Instructions: Applicants should submit a current CV, names of three references, and an indication of the experimental direction they would like to pursue based on their reading of our recent papers. Send applications to:
