I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Biochemistry Dept. at Columbia
University, approaching completion of my dissertation. My thesis research
is focused on studying Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor, with the use of reverse
genetics. Publications relating to this work, are listed below.
I will complete my thesis this coming spring. I am seeking a post-
doctoral position in which I would hope to pursue questions of neural
development and/or post-developmental function using a combination of
genetic, molecular biological, and biochemical methods. I would be
grateful to be informed of relevant job opportunities.
