Postdoc position

[Zhi-Liiang Zheng]

Postdoctoral position

Plant signal transduction

A postdoctoral position is available in September/October in Lehman 
College, The City University of New York (CUNY). The Department of 
Biological Sciences houses the Plant Sciences PhD Program, the 
largest of its kind in NY City. The lab is well equipped, including 
real-time PCR and microscopic imaging facility. Our previous work has 
shown that ROP10 small GTPase negatively regulates abscisic acid 
signaling (Plant Cell, 2002, 14: 2787) and that several other ROPs 
are involved in nutrient stress responses. In addition to these 
projects, the postdoc is particularly encouraged to initiate new 
studies in signaling processes that govern plant response and 
adaptation to environmental cues. Research projects and salary will 
be determined based on the experience, mutual interests and 
university policy. The postdoc should have a strong background and 
technical expertise and a productive record in areas of plant 
physiology and molecular biology or biochemistry. The initial 
appointme nt is for two years (supported by the startup fund) and can 
be renewed depending on performance. If interested, please send to 
<mailto:zheng_24b at yahoo.com>zheng_24b at yahoo.com: (1) your C.V. 
(listed with experimental skills and publications), (2) a two-page 
statement of past and current research and future plans, and (3) 
contact information of 2-3 references. Application deadline: August 
31, 2003, or until filled.
