发帖数: 1 | 1 A postdoctoral position is available immediately in the laboratory of
Professor Shinghua Ding at Dalton Cardiovascular Research Center, the
University of Missouri-Columbia. The candidate will investigate the
molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration in neural diseases including
stroke using both in vitro model of primary cultured neurons and glial cells
and in vivo mouse model. Qualified candidates must hold a Ph.D. degree or
equivalent degree (preferably a recently received degree) in neuroscience,
neurobiology, physiology, cell/molecular biology, or a related field.
Excellent oral and written communication skills and capabilities to work
independently and in a team are necessary. A successful candidate should
possess interdisciplinary experimental skills to conduct research using cell
and animal models. Specifically, a candidate should have skills in:
(1) Molecular and cellular neurobiology: sub-cloning, RT-PCR, primary
neuronal and glia cell cultures, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence
, Western blot, cell-and brain-tissue based neuronal death assays.
Or (2) Neurophysiology: Live cell and/or in vivo two-photon fluorescent
imaging, mouse handling and surgical procedures, electrophysiological
recording of neuronal activity.
The University of Missouri-Columbia is the flagship campus of the four-
campus University of Missouri System and is considered one of the nation's
top-tier institutions with a reputation of excellence in teaching and
research. It is one of only 34 public universities to be selected for
membership in the Association of American Universities. Interested
candidates should submit a letter of interest, curriculum vitae, and contact
information for at least two references to Shinghua Ding:
