We are seeking a highly motivated post-doc to study the epigenetic regulation of gene expression in developmental processes. Our research interest centers on the dissection of epigenetic and transcriptional mechanisms underlying lineage commitment in physiological and disease-related conditions. We employ a combination of molecular, cellular and in vivo approaches to investigate the role of epigenetic alterations in development and cancer.
The optimal candidate would have a PhD in molecular or cellular biology, experience in gene expression, transcriptional regulation, cell biology, biochemical assays.
Candidates at earlier stages of their scientific careers will also be considered.
Potential candidates are invited to send a curriculum vitae, a brief statement of research interests and contact information of 1 or 2 references to Giuseppina Caretti, giuseppina.caretti@unimi.it.
