Postdoctoral research on Animal models (Kollias lab) (10-07-2010)

The group of Dr. George Kollias at BSRC Fleming is seeking postdoctoral researchers with proven expertise in the following areas:


- Systems Biology: The project involves computational analysis and integration of large-scale molecular data from normal vs. diseased animals at various levels, including transcriptional, post-transcriptional, miRNA and epigenetic regulation.

- Murine models of disease: Projects involve genetic analysis of models of immune mediated disorders, dissection of molecular mechanisms, and target identification and validation. The candidate should have extensive expertise in working with mouse models, and in basic molecular and cellular phenotyping.
 

Candidates must be highly motivated and able to work independently. They will be part of an interactive research group that operates across immunology, molecular biology, biochemistry and animal models of disease. Candidates are expected to seek funding from competitive sources such as Marie-Curie, EMBO, HFSP and national fellowships in collaboration with the host lab. At least one high impact, first-author publication is required.

BSRC Fleming (www.fleming.gr) is one of the most rapidly developing research centers in Greece and is actively involved in cutting edge research in modern biomedical sciences. Researchers will have the opportunity to do research in a state-of-the art environment based on merit, scientific excellence and innovation, as well as to benefit from the Center’s Core Facilities (including Animal house, Expression profiling, Protein Chemistry, Transgenesis, Genotyping and Phenotyping, BioIT as well as Technology Transfer).
