Dr. George Wu’s hepatocellular research laboratory has recently discovered a method by which functional mitochondria can be delivered to liver cells, enter those cells, and restore mitochondrial activities in cells with damaged or absent mitochondria. This novel technology could be of great value in studying the regulation of mitochondrial function and replication, and it is possible that a formulation could result in a clinical application.
We are seeking to fill a post-doctoral fellow position for up to two years to work on this project.
Required skills include:
Mammalian cell culture
qPCR of mRNA and DNA
Protein quantitation
Immunofluorescence microscopy
Animal surgery and care (rats or mice)
Adequate command of verbal and written English
Preferred skills include:
Preparation of hepatocyte primary cultures
Techniques that will be learned during this post-doc include:
Formation of targetable mitochondrial complexes
Assay for mitochondrial function
Targeted transfer of mitochondria to mammalian cells
Confocal localization of targeted mitochondria
Mitochondrial oxygen consumption
Intravenous injection into animals (rats and mice)
The salary is regulated by NIH and would depend on the level of training.
Those interested should contact Dr. George Y. Wu:
wu@nso.uchc.edu
and provide a photo, CV, and list of references.
