There is currently an opening for a postdoctoral position in the
laboratory of Dr. Danny Reines at Emory University School of Medicine in
Atlanta. We are looking for an ethusiastic postdoctoral colleague
interested in the biochemistry and molecular biology of gene
expression. Our lab works on transcription by RNA polymerase II in the
yeast S. cerevisiae and in mammalian transcription systems. In
particular we are focussing on the mechanism of RNA synthesis, the
dynamics of transcription elongation, the RNA polymerase II subunits and
their genes, and elongation factor SII. We are employing a varied set
of molecular and biochemical techniques including protein expression and
purification, Northern blotting, in vitro transcription, chromatin
immunoprecipitation, site-directed mutagenesis, and yeast genetics, as
well as others. More importantly, we are looking for an independent
and energetic individual who can bring her or his own skills to the lab
to synthesize novel opportunities in this research area. Research in
the lab is supported by NIH grants and other funding. Emory provides
ultramodern facilities and a vibrant scientific (and postdoctoral)
community in a comfortable suburban Atlanta setting close to downtown.
