Postdoctoral Fellow in Molecular Genetics of Human diseases

Mayo Clinic

A post-doctoral fellow position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Xiaolei Xu, Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Mayo Clinic College of Medicine.  The successful applicant will join a team that is leveraging powerful zebrafish genetics to model human cardiovascular diseases, to decipher underlying mechanisms, and to develop new therapies.  The lab recently integrated African Turquois Killifish as a new animal model for studying normative cardiac and kidney aging. Below please find two representative manuscripts from the lab on doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity.  Applications are invited from candidates who have a strong background in molecular biology, genetics and/or cardiovascular diseases. Previous experience in animal models of human diseases and/or bioinformatics are favored, but not required. Qualified candidates must be self-motivated and have a strong commitment to basic research.
