Job Title: Postdoctoral position at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia
Job Number: 91185
Location: Philadelphia, US
Job Description
The laboratory of Dr. Gerd Blobel seeks a highly motivated, team oriented postdoc. One main interest of the lab is the regulation of the globin genes and associated diseases. Particular focus is on the discovery and characterization of factors that control the switch from fetal to adult hemoglobin production. Reversal of this switch is a long standing goal in the field because elevated fetal globin level ameliorate symptoms of sickle cell disease and beta-thalassemia. Our team is dedicated to exploit molecular discoveries for the development of drugs.
We are a very interactive and productive group with close ties to the wider UPenn community and the UPenn Epigenetics Institute. We also have several collaborations with pharma/biotech enabling team members to gain exposure not only to academia but also industry.
The successful candidate will have experience in molecular biology and/or biochemistry. Experience in bioinformatics is a strong plus.
