A postdoctoral scholar position is available in the Molecular Endocrinology Laboratory in the Division of Endocrinology, UCLA Department of Medicine. The candidate will have access to UCLA and VA campuses. The focus of the laboratory is studying thyroid hormone signaling in metabolic regulation and neural growth. We utilize cellular and animal models to study gene regulation by thyroid hormone, cross-talk with nutrient nuclear receptors, and regulation of stem cells. We are currently investigating the importance of posttranslational modification of thyroid hormone receptor by sumoylation. Additionally, we are investigating the mechanism of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in animal and cellular models and the role of thyroid hormone in neuronal protection and promoting regeneration. These studies are both identifying novel therapeutic targets. The tools applied in these projects include genetic mouse models, physiologic studies of metabolic regulation and brain function, gene expression assays, genomics, proteomics, epigenetics, high throughput data analysis and a wide-range of immunoassays, immunostaining and bioassays. Experience with the use of mouse models, fluorescent imaging, biochemistry, molecular biology, and strong quantitative/computational skills and experience with statistical/graphing software are preferred.
