Postdoctoral positions in prostaglandin biology, thermoregulation, and TRP channels physiology

We are looking for Postdoctoral Fellows, Research Associates, Visiting Scientists, or Visiting Ph.D. Students to study: lipid mediators of fever and hypothermia in systemic inflammation; behavioral thermoregulation in rats and mice; and physiological roles of transient receptor potential channels. Recent publications from the Laboratory include PLoS Biol 4: e284, 2006; PLoS ONE 1: e1, 2006; and J Neurosci 27: 7459, 2007.

Highly motivated individuals with an enthusiastic interest in our research program are invited to apply. Background in molecular biology, systems physiology, or immunohistochemistry/neuroanatomy is preferred, but the ability to think and work independently, dedication to work, and persistence in the face of failure are more important than the area of specialization.

For postdoctoral positions, mandatory requirements include an advanced degree, a track record of peer-reviewed publications, excellent computer skills, and good writing skills. To apply, send your curriculum vitae, reprints of full-length papers, a brief description of research interests and career goals, and names, e-mail addresses, and telephone numbers of at least two references to:
