Description

A postdoctoral position is available at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, to study beta cell regeneration in the Zebrafish islet. We previously developed a drug inducible system to specifically ablate beta cells in embryonic fish. Following a period of recovery, beta cells are observed to regenerate. Our goal is now to identify the progenitors of these regenerated beta cells using genetic inducible tracing techniques.

Interested candidates must have a PhD in a biological science and expertise in Molecular Biology.
