Two fully funded postdoc positions are available in the McNeill lab, at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis (https://mcneilllab.wustl.edu/people-page).

One project explores a poorly studied nuclear envelope protein, called Nemp, that we found is critical for fertility in flies, worms, fish and mice (Tsatsiks et al., 2020), with a special emphasis on how Nemp regulates chromatin organization during oogenesis.

The other project investigates how Fat cadherins regulate Hippo pathway activity, planar cell polarity and mitochondrial activity.

Applicants should have a PhD and demonstrated relevant research experience. A strong background in molecular biology, genetics, developmental biology, or cell biology is required. Experience in ChIP-seq, Hi-C or live imaging is a plus.

Interested applicants should email a single PDF file consisting of a cover letter, curriculum vitae, a personal statement (including research interests and career goals) to: mcneillh@wustl.edu.
