Postdoctoral Fellow position - Developmental/ Reproductive biology at USA

The Division of Reproductive Sciences at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center has an opening for a Postdoctoral Fellow. The De Falco laboratory is focused on the roles of macrophages and immune cells in gonad differentiation and function. The goal of the research is to elucidate the cell-cell interactions and signaling pathways mediated by immune cells during organogenesis and organ homeostasis, in an effort to uncover mechanisms fundamental to fetal development and stem cell biology. The laboratory has projects related to fetal testis morphogenesis as well as regulation of spermatogonial development in the adult male. This project will entail extensive use of mouse genetic models, organ culture, confocal microscopy, high-throughput sequencing, and live imaging techniques. For more information about projects see:

The Division is a high-energy, dynamic, and interactive environment that is interested in recruiting self-motivated individuals with the drive to succeed and the desire to be competitive at the international level. Candidates with a strong background in developmental biology, reproductive biology, or a related field are encouraged to apply. Experience with mouse model systems is desired but not absolutely required.

 Please upload a brief statement of scientific/research interests, your curriculum vitae, and a list of 3 references.
