Applicants who are highly motivated in academic research are invited to apply for positions in the research area of stem cell biology, epigenetics, and molecular neuroscience at University of California, Los Angeles. Our research aims to understand basic mechanisms of stem cell biology and neural development, and further translate basic research into clinical medicine. Our representative publications include papers in Science 322: 890-893, 2003; Development 132: 3345-56, 2005; Human Mol. Genet. 15: 2623-35, 2006; Cell Stem Cell 2: 160-169, 2008; PNAS 105:4709-4714, 2008, and Human Molecular Genetics 2009 as listed in our lab website. Skills in molecular biology, stem cell cultures, handling of transgenic mice, or prior research background in genetics, neuroscience, or retina biology are desirable.
