Postdoctoral Fellow
Wattrus Lab A funded postdoctoral fellow position is available in the Wattrus laboratory at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School. The selected candidate will advance our effo... rts to study immune cell biology in injury and regeneration using fish models. Prior experience with zebrafish or medaka is preferred but not required. The ideal candidate has a solid background in stem cell, immune, and/or developmental biology with both wet and dry lab skills. We offer: • A competitive salary keeping with the high cost of living in Boston • Curiosity driven science in a supportive and diverse environment • Commitment to mentorship and career development tailored to your goals • A vibrant scientific community in the Molecular Biology department at Massachusetts General Hospital
The ideal candidate is a senior or recently-graduated PhD student - hopefully one attending ZDM17! If that’s you, shoot me an email, let’s chat!

Genomic and Gene Therapy Discoveries in Craniofacial Morphogenesis - Post-doctoral Fellow Position
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia The Center for Craniofacial Innovation at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and University of Pennsylvania is seeking a highly motivated research fellow interested in cra... niofacial developmental biology and genetics. It is a particularly exciting time to carry out these studies at CHOP as we are integrating multi-modal data across research centers, clinical informatics, deep phenotyping, genomic and multi-omic analysis of massive biorepositories of congenital conditions, cancers and pediatric diseases. We are embarking on translational advances to realize the goal of precision medicine to improve the diagnosis and treatment of congenital and pediatric conditions. We are specifically interested in recruiting a candidate with experience in human genetics, developmental biology or disease models. Working knowledge of zebrafish genetics and tools is highly desirable. We have a robust pipeline of identifying human genes that are associated rare craniofacial conditions, where we apply zebrafish, human iPSC/organoid or mouse models to dissect the developmental genetic basis of craniofacial malformations. The fellow will join a collaborative group of scientists who study the basic and translational biology of facial morphogenesis, cranial neural crest specification and development. In this instance, the fellow’s work will focus on functional genomics of human candidate genes implicated in orofacial clefts. We are interested in the basic biology of epithelial development, RNA splicing, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, neural crest cell specification, migration, differentiation and potential for regeneration. We integrate the approaches of developmental and stem cell biology, and use multi-disciplinary tools to explore human tissue regeneration and disease. We strongly value diversity, equity and fair compensation with benefits of our team members. Post-doctoral fellows are provided full employee benefits and are actively mentored toward their chosen careers.

Identifying genetic pathways that regulate lipid and lipoproteins in larval zebrafish
Johns Hopkins University A postdoctoral position is available immediately in the laboratory of Dr. Steven Farber in the Biology Department of Johns Hopkins University, in Baltimore, MD.
... We are seeking a highly motivated applicant with a strong interest in questions of lipid metabolism. The position involves studies of several genes that modify lipoprotein levels through poorly understood pathways. The project leverages the advantages of the zebrafish model to perform studies at the cellular and subcellular levels to characterize genes affecting digestive organ lipid uptake, metabolism, transport and storage.
An ideal candidate will be creative, industrious, have excellent communication skills, and enjoy working independently as well as collaboratively. A Ph.D. in a related field and fluency in spoken and written English is required for the position. The laboratory performs studies at the nexus of lipid cell biology, metabolism and digestive physiology. For more information on the laboratory and recent publications, visit: https://bio.jhu.edu/directory/steven-farber/. To apply, please email a CV to sfarber3@jhu.edu
