Postdoctoral Position - University of Michigan

A postdoctoral position is available in the MCDB department, University of Michigan (https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/duan-lab/) to study zebrafish developmental and cell biology. Our recent research focuses on the regulation of cell quiescence-proliferation decisions by growth factor signaling, metabolic re-programming, and HIFs (see eLife 8:e48003, 2019; Science Signaling, 11: eaat2231, 2018; AJP, 310:C260, 2016). We are looking for a highly motivated recent PhD with extensive experience in zebrafish developmental biology, molecular genetics, and imaging techniques. Research experience with single cell technology is a plus but not required.
