MGHのDr. Motamediが、ポスドクを募集しています。数年前にRNA-mediated epigenetic gene silencingをテーマに研究室を立ち上げ、主にyeastを用いた細胞周期の解析から、quiescenceとproliferationとの移行に必要なepigenetic な修飾因子を同定してきた新進気鋭の若手研究者です。quiescentな癌細胞、特に癌幹細胞やdormant cancer cellへの関心から我々の研究室と共同研究をしている関わりで依頼を受け、募集記事を掲載させていただいています。ラボについての詳細は、本人が書いた紹介記事（下記添付）、ホームページ、また丁度今月 Molecular Cell に掲載された彼の論文を参考にされてください。

***************************
The Motamedi Lab at the Harvard Medical School and MGH Cancer Center has vacancies for two highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellows. The Fellows will have an opportunity to study the molecular mechanism of chromatin and non-coding RNAs in epigenetic gene silencing, cellular dormancy and metabolism. The ideal candidates have productive Ph.D. publication records, compatible with procuring external funding, with expertise in tissue culture, molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, genomic and/or proteomic techniques. The Fellow will lead a collaborative project involving several labs at the Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. The laboratory is grounded in a strong basic research focus and is working closely with the clinical researchers at the MGH Cancer Center.

See Mol Cell. 2016 Dec 15;64:1088-1101 for their latest work which also was featured as the cover story.

Please email a one-page cover letter, CV, and contact information of three referees to: mmotamedi@hms.harvard.edu
