in cell types important to cardiovascular disease and diabetes such as endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, and leukocyte subsets. Studies will involve understanding specific aspects of non-coding RNAs and target gene function in vitro and in vivo using mouse knockout, knockdown, or overexpression studies, and translational assessment in human specimens.

Requirements:

Candidate must have a strong background in molecular and cellular biology, or vascular biology, outstanding written and verbal communication skills, be self-motivated, have demonstrated productivity, and ability to be independent while also working in a team environment. Experience in molecular biology and mice is strongly preferred.

Candidates must be able to make a 2-year commitment.

Degree Required: Ph.D. or M.D.

Interested candidates are asked to send curriculum vitae and name/contact information of 3 references to: Mark Feinberg, MD, Professor of Medicine, Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, 77 Avenue Louis Pasteur, Boston, MA 02115; EMAIL to: mfeinberg@bwh.harvard.edu
