The Zhu lab recently discovered a cell- autonomous mammalian 12h-clock that runs independently from the circadian clock to regulate 12h oscillations of gene expression and metabolism (Zhu et al., Cell Metabolism, 2017, Zhu et al., JES, 2018). The Zhu lab is currently investigating the regulation as well as the physiological/ pathological functions of the 12h-clock, with an emphasis on its roles in maintaining hepatic metabolic homeostasis and preventing aging-associated diseases. A combination of state-of-the-art computational, biochemical, genetic, cellular, imaging and genomic approaches is currently utilized in the lab. For a detailed description of the research performed in Zhu lab, please visit http://www.bzhulab.com. The search is primarily targeted towards scientists who recently finished their PhD. Start date is after Sep 1st, 2018 and flexible. Researchers with a passion in systemic and quantitative chronobiology, transcriptional regulation of metabolism, and ER and mitochondria biology, regardless of their training background, are welcome to apply. Expertise in any of the following areas is highly valued though not required: In vivo mouse circadian and hepatic metabolism techniques Molecular biology, biochemistry and the field of regulation of gene expression Bioinformatics expertise in the analysis of NGS datasets such as RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq and GRO-Seq Imaging-based cell biology techniques Pitt med is a national leader in biomedical research. University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine is currently ranked 14th in the category of research by U.S. News and is separately ranked 17th in the Academic Ranking of World Universities list of best medical schools in the world. The medical school’s NIH funding level also ranks fifth in the nation. To apply, please send a cover letter describing your past training, research interests and career goals, a detailed CV and contact information of three referees to Dr. Bokai Zhu at [email protected]
