Postdoctoral researcher position available at Yang Chai laboratory
The Yang Chai laboratory at the Center for Craniofacial Molecular Biology at USC is looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join our lab.
Chai Lab is interested in the regulation of developmental patterning, organogenesis, stem cells and regenerative medicine. Chai Lab studies will seek to define molecular mechanisms governing both normal and abnormal craniofacial development, providing scientific rationales for future therapeutic strategies to prevent and treat craniofacial birth defects, as well as stem cell based craniofacial regenerative medicine.
The candidate must have a PhD and be experienced with molecular and developmental biology. This position is supported by the NIDCR, NIH.
To apply, please send your CV and three letters of recommendation to Yang Chai (c/o Ms. Linda Hattemer at lhatteme@usc.edu). EOE/AA
