Postdoctoral positions are available in the laboratory of Morgan Carlson at the Center on Aging, University of Connecticut Health Center. The laboratory’s overall focus is to identify and understand cell signaling changes that occur through the aging process, to investigate their impact on stem cell behavior and to evaluate their potential as therapeutic targets in specific human disease backgrounds. The ideal candidate should have a Ph.D. and/or M.D. degree, a strong background in molecular/cellular experimental systems and possess a special interest in regenerative medicine and the biology of aging. We are currently working on experimental systems involving the use of adult muscle, induced pluripotent/embryonic stem cells and animal model. Prior experience with any of these is a plus.
Interested applicants should submit their current curriculum vitae, contact information for three references and brief statement of research background and interests by email to: mcarlson@uchc.edu, Morgan Carlson, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Center on Aging and Department of Genetics and Developmental Biology, The University of Connecticut Health Center. |
