Postdoctoral position in circadian clock research
An NSF-funded postdoctoral researcher position is available immediately
to investigate the function of GIGANTEA (GI) in the context of the plant
circadian clock (see: Kim, W.Y. et al., Nature (2007) 449: 356-360). Our
findings have uncovered a novel link between GI, protein stability and
robust circadian cycling. Subsequent work is now focusing on the
biochemical and molecular basis of GI activity. Research expertise in
molecular biology and protein biochemistry is highly desirable but prior
plant experience is not a requirement. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in
biochemistry, molecular biology or related fields. Interested candidates
should send (as PDF) a cover letter accompanying a curriculum vitae, as
well as the names of three references (preferably via email attachment) to:
