the Developmental Hematology Laboratory at Children's Hospital-Harvard Medical School

Position

Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology

Location

Boston, USA

Date Posted

Oct 9th 2007

Description

Our group’s research focuses on fetal and neonatal megakaryocytopoiesis and platelet biology, with an emphasis of mechanisms underlying neonatal thrombocytopenia. Ongoing projects include platelet kinetic studies in thrombocytopenic newborn mice, in vitro megakaryocyte progenitor and megakaryocyte ploidy assays, and characterization of molecular mechanisms regulating the proliferation and differentiation of neonatal megakaryocytes. The candidate should have a PhD in an area related to Biochemistry/Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, Hematology, or Pathology. A strong background in various biochemical and molecular biology laboratory techniques (including real time PCR), cell culture, flow cytometry, and immunohistochemistry is highly desirable. Small animal experience is a requisite. The Division of Newborn Medicine is equipped with state of the art instrumentation and the Harvard Longwood Medical Area offers extraordinary opportunities for scientific interactions.

Candidates must be fluent in verbal and written English, and must be available for a personal or telephone interview.
