Postdoctoral position

[Iris Meier]

A NSF-funded postdoctoral position is available immediately to 
investigate the dynamic subcellular anchoring of Ran signaling in 
plants. Anticipated projects include investigating the functional 
re-localization of RanGAP during plant mitosis; the identification of 
subcellular anchors of RanGAP; and the genome-wide identification of 
large coiled-coil proteins in Arabidopsis using a combination of 
computational and experimental approaches. (Gindullis et al., (2002)

pleasant level of sophistication.

To apply, please send a CV, a brief statement of research experience 
and research interests, and the names of three references (including 
address, phone, and email) to Iris Meier by mail or email. Successful 
postdoctoral candidates will have a Ph.D., experience in molecular 
biology or cell biology, and a proven record of productivity 
including publications in internationally recognized journals.
