A funded Postdoctoral position is available immediately for a highly motivated individual to study the compartmentalized regulation of signal transduction pathways by the scaffold protein intersectin (ITSN). The laboratory has previously uncovered a role for ITSN in the regulation multiple biochemical pathways including endocytosis, protein kinase activation, ubiquitylation, and Ras activation. We are interested in defining the normal function of ITSN in the processes of cell growth, differentiation, and survival as well as involvement of ITSN in such pathological conditions as cancer and neurodegeneration (see http://www.uic.edu/depts/mcph/obryan.htm for more details). Applicants must be a US citizen or permanent resident, possess an M.D., Ph.D. or M.D/Ph.D. with relevant experience in molecular biology, cell biology, or pharmacology, and be available for personal interviews. The laboratory is located in the new College of Medicine Research Building with state-of-the-art facilities including core facilities for confocal microscopy, mass spectrometry, flow cytometry, animal husbandry, etc. The University of Illinois at Chicago, located in the Medical Center District 1 mile west of the Chicago Loop, is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer. Interested candidates should email a statement of research interests and experience, a CV, and names of three references to: John P. O’Bryan, Ph.D. Salary range: Starting at $35,000 per year plus benefits (commensurate with experience).
