From: Richard L. Darley (Darley@cardiff.ac.uk)

I would like to draw attention to the following research positions in
this Department.  One of these positions in particular would be very
suitable for those with experience of flow cytometric analysis as it
will involve multiparameter analysis of retrovirally-transduced
primary haematopoietic cells.  If you are interested please feel free
to contact me directly for any informal inquiries.<bold>


UNIVERSITY OF WALES COLLEGE OF MEDICINE


2 POST DOCTORAL RESEARCH FELLOWS


Starting Salary £16,286-£20,811 per annum


Two 3-year post doctoral research positions have become
available within the Department of Haematology, one funded
by the Leukaemia Research Fund and one funded by a
UWCM endowment fund.  These positions will form part of a
significant new initiative within the Department to
investigate the effects of the t(8:21) translocation on
haematopoietic development.  The study, which will be
carried out in collaboration with Dr James Downing (St
Jude's Hospital, Memphis) has 2 principle aims: first, to
investigate the effects of this translocation on primary cell
development using a model system already established (<italic>J.
Exp. Med. 185, 1337 1997)</italic> and second, to analyse changes in
gene expression arising as a consequence of this
translocation.  In parallel with these studies we will also
examine the efficacy of potential therapeutic agents in
targeting t(8:21) disease.  Experience in molecular and/or
cell biology will be advantageous as will the ability to
supervise the work of both students and research assistants.
