The Molecular Cytometry Facility at the University of Texas Medical Branch
at Galveston, under the direction of Dr. James F. Leary, is seeking a
postdoctoral fellow for a 2-year position, effective immediately. The
applicant should be experienced in basic immunocytochemical labeling
techniques, and should have a minimum of one year's experience in flow
cytometry and cell sorting. Experience in PCR and fluorescence in-situ
hybridization (FISH) techniques is highly desirable. This NIH-funded project
involves multicolor immunofluorescence labeling of rare human metastatic
breast cancer cells in peripheral blood and bone marrow, high-speed flow
cytometry and cell sorting, molecular characterization of sorted cells by
RT-PCR for oncogene expression, and fluorescence in-situ hybridization
(FISH) for chromosome structural rearrangements. The position represents an
opportunity to further train in sophisticated flow cytometry and cell
sorting in a well-known lab with people having more than 20 years'
experience, and the challenge of developing and using new single-cell
molecular characterization assays to be applied to the project. Salary $ 25K
- $ 35K depending on experience. UTMB is an equal opportunity/affirmative
action employer (M/F/H/V).
Email replies are welcome but applicants should send a detailed curriculum
vitae to:
