A Post-Doctoral Fellow position is immediately available in the Lim lab
at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation (OMRF) to study novel genes
and pathways in cardiac health and disease, using Drosophila as a model
system. Specific areas of interest include the roles of reactive oxygen
species and lipid/carbohydrate metabolism in modulating cardiac
physiology and pathophysiology (see also Genes Dev. 25(2):189-200).
OMRF is an independent, not-for-profit, biomedical research institute adjacent to the campus of the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (OUHSC) in Oklahoma City. OMRF investigators enjoy close scientific interactions with OUHSC faculty and participate in meetings with other fly labs at the University of Oklahoma (Norman campus). OMRF has been selected as #3 in the nation for the best research institutions for post-docs in 2013 by The Scientist journal. Forbes ranks Oklahoma City as one of the most affordable cities in the US based on its economic prosperity, solid job markets, and housing cost. Additional information about OMRF can be found at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation web site: https://omrf.org
Minimum Qualifications: Ph.D. in a biological science, chemistry, physics or other relevant area, M.D., or equivalent
Preferred Qualifications: Prior experience in Drosophila genetics will be an advantage. Preference will be given to candidates with documented success in research, such as recent first author publications and aspirations for an independent scientific career. Highly motivated and goal-oriented individuals are encouraged to apply.
Special Instructions to Applicants: Interested applicants should send a CV, statement of research interests and names of three references to: Hui-Ying Lim, Ph.D., via e-mail: Hui-ying-Lim@omrf.org, CC: Postdoc-Recruiting@omrf.org
