Postdoctoral Staff
At Ordway Research Institute and Department of Biomedical Sciences, State University of New York at Albany 27 Nov 2007
A recently funded NIH postdoctoral position is available to study how polymorphic human cytochrome P450 genes activate carcinogens to become genotoxic agents. The project involves expressing cytochrome P450 genes in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and monitoring checkpoint activation and genotoxic endpoints after exposure to liver carcinogens. The project is in collaboration with the School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins University. This is an excellent opportunity for an individual with experience in yeast genetics, PCR, chromosome karyotyping, and general molecular biology techniques.
Experience in yeast genetics is desirable but not necessary.
