Post Doc Fellow - Washington, United States - Howard University
Description
The Talent Acquisition department hires qualified candidates to fill positions which contribute to the overall strategic success of Howard University. Hiring staff "for fit" makes significant contributions to Howard University's overall mission.BASIC FUNCTION:
Dr. Stanley Andrisse, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics at Howard University College of Medicine, is looking for a research technician and/or trainee(s) (undergraduate, graduate, and professional) to help perform basic and molecular laboratory techniques such as, cell culture, transfections and transformations, protein and nucleic acid isolation, western blot analysis, immunoprecipitation, quantitative real-time PCR, animal colony maintenance, genotyping, and others.
NATURE AND SCOPE:
Dr. Andrisse's research investigates the intersecting pathways of different insulin resistant states. Dysregulated hepatic glucose metabolism plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. The pathways that regulate hepatic gluconeogenesis, glycogen synthesis, and glycogenolysis are complex. Increasing evidence from my work and others has revealed many intersecting pathways that influence the traditional PI3K/AKT insulin action pathway.
Discovering these mechanistic interactions, using cutting-edge molecular technologies is the focus of my work. I will employ the use of animal models, cell culture models and clinical collaborations.
