The Lo Laboratory at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City is seeking highly motivated postdoctoral fellows. We aim to understand the basic mechanisms underlying cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, including diabetes and obesity. The lab uses a combination of state of the art molecular techniques to complement mouse models of disease.
Candidates should have a PhD, MD, or equivalent degree. Excellent verbal and written communication skills are required. Most importantly, candidates should be creative, independent, and dedicated to building a research career. Research experience in metabolism, immunology, pancreatic islet biology and mouse physiology is preferred, but not required. The successful candidate will join a dynamic team of scientists and will have an opportunity to develop his/her own project as well as contribute to many exciting ongoing research projects within the lab.
