<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">A postdoc position is available in Dr. Jing Yang’s lab in the Department of Comparative Biosciences at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (</span><a href="https://vetmed.illinois.edu/yang-lab/publications/"><span style="color:#0563C1">https://vetmed.illinois.edu/yang-lab/publications/</span></a><span style="color:black">).
The Yang lab investigates major developmental transitions using Xenopus and zebrafish. In particular, we are interested in cellular and molecular mechanisms responsible for the deep cytoplasmic remodeling during the oocyte-to-embryo transition. We study remodeling
of cellular machineries and organelles during oocyte meiotic maturation and egg activation, how these remodeling events influence the localization/expression/function of maternal factors, and how maternal factors control early embryonic patterning and primordial
germ cell development. Highly motivated individuals with a passion for developmental biology are encouraged to apply. Special consideration will be given to candidates with strong experience in cell/developmental/molecular biology.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>The
position is available immediately. The start date is negotiable. To apply, please submit a cover letter with a summary of research experience, curriculum vitae, and a list of three references by email to<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>Dr. Jing
