LSU Health Sciences Center招聘博士后 Postdoctoral Researcher

A Postdoctoral position is available in the Department of Pharmacology to conduct projects focused on the central neural and humoral control of cardiovascular and kidney function, which offer exciting possibilities to integrate cellular and molecular approaches with whole animal physiology and pharmacology. This position offers a competitive salary based on experience and full benefits. Our laboratory uses an integrated approach involving rodent animal models, gene knockout mice, sympathetic nerve recording, radio telemetry, and CNS microinjection methods to understand the cellular signaling pathways (e.g., G-alpha subunit proteins) by which brain G-protein coupled receptor ligands affect neural and humoral pathways that control cardiovascular and renal function in vivo. We are currently seeking a candidate with a solid background in molecular/cellular biology who will integrate with our research team to investigate the cellular and signaling mechanisms mediating the cardiorenal responses to central opioids, angiotensin II and other GPCR ligands. Our multifaceted approach is aimed toward development of novel therapeutic ligands used to target pathological states involving elevated sympathoexcitation and vasopressin release. In addition to those with a background in molecular/cellular biology, candidates that are established in whole animal approaches but want to expand their knowledge of the cardiovascular, kidney and autonomic nervous system are encouraged to apply. Interested applicant� should submit a Cover Letter, CV and contact information of three references to the address below. Reference #00038380
