Postdoctoral Position in the Epigenetics of Development at the National Institutes of Health
in Bethesda, Maryland

A fully funded postdoctoral position is available to study epigenetics of development using
zebrafish as well as cavefish, mouse, and cell culture models in the laboratory of Dr. Brant
Weinstein in the NICHD Division of Developmental Biology (DDB) in Bethesda, Maryland. The
Weinstein laboratory uses a variety of cutting-edge molecular, cellular, genetic, transgenic,
microscopic imaging, and next-gen sequencing approaches to study the role of epigenetics
during development. In addition to other related studies, the laboratory is currently carrying
out the first-ever genetic screen for vertebrate tissue-specific epigenetic regulatory genes using
a novel "EpiTag" transgenic epigenetic reporter line. The scientific environment, resources, and
stipend support for this position are superb. Learn more about research in the Weinstein lab.

Interested applicants should have a Ph.D. or M.D. and less than 3 years' postdoctoral
experience. To apply, send a curriculum vitae, bibliography, cover letter with a brief description
of research experience and interests, and the names of 3 references (with phone numbers) via
e-mail to weinsteb@mail.nih.gov and to amy.parkhurst@nih.gov.
