The postdoctoral fellow will be engaging in exciting, collaborative projects at UW medicine South Lake Union. Our group is interested in the role of fortilin in atherosclerosis. Work will include performing significant and innovative scientific experiments pertaining to the characterization of fortilin with the highest-possible scientific rigor, which include and are not limited to (a) molecular biological and biochemical experiments, (b) immunofluorescent and immunohistochemical staining, © cell-based assays, and (d) whole animal experiments.

The successful candidate must have a Ph.D. or equivalent degree relevant to biological science with less than 3 years of post-doctoral training. In addition, the candidate must have at least one first author paper published within the last 3 years.
