Genomics, Biochemistry, Genetics
National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, Bethesda, MD and surrounding area
Position Description:
RNA Biology, Transposon regulation, PIWI-interacting small RNAs
National Institutes of Health/ NIDDK.
The Haase-lab is recruiting a postdoctoral fellow or postbac IRTA with background in biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, or bioinformatics.
We aim to understand how small non-coding RNAs guard genome integrity. Our lab investigates the ongoing conflict between mobile genetic elements (transposons) and their host genomes through a combination of biochemistry, genetics, and genomics. To learn more about our lab visit:
