Description

A postdoctoral fellow position is available in Dr. Giorgio Lagna’s groupin the Molecular Cardiology Research Institute of Tufts Medical Center,Boston. The lab investigates the action of TGF? and Bone MorphogeneticProteins (BMP) on the cardiovascular system, with special emphasis onthe differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells. We are particularlyseeking someone to help us elucidate the molecular signaling pathwaysthat specifically direct smooth muscle differentiation, and theenthusiasm to extend these findings to in vivo disease models.

Applicants should have a PhD, MD, or both, with a strong background incell signaling and experience with primary cell culture and in thehandling of mice. Training will emphasize interdisciplinaryrelationships between molecular biology, gene expression, cell signalingand cardiovascular pharmacology and physiology.
