Our lab is focused on understanding the signaling and gene regulatory mechanisms that control heart failure and associated disorders.

    We are particularly interested in the role of epigenetics in regulating the pathological cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis that is associated with heart failure.


    We are also interested in the mechanisms whereby signals derived from cell surface receptors are conveyed to histone-modifying enzymes by proteins kinases and phosphatases.

    The long-term goal of our work is to translate basic discoveries to novel therapies for patients with heart failure, which afflicts millions of adults in the U.S.

    and is associated with a 5-year mortality rate of nearly 50%.

    As such, our lab has established core expertise to enable in vitro, cellular and in vivo assessment of experimental small molecule compounds in support of early stage drug discovery.


    We are seeking a team member who is passionate about performing original research in an academic setting, has excellent organizational skills, is able to work both independently and in a team setting, dedicated to maintaining a healthy and respectful workplace, and wishes to contribute to a vibrant and energetic research environment in a leading scientific institution in the Rocky Mountain region.

    • Design and develop experimental and analytical methods to acquire and data looking at the role of epigenetics in regulating the pathological cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis.
    • Interpret data and communicate experimental results and findings in both spoken and written formats to colleagues both within and outside the institution.
    • Work independently or as part of a team on protein biochemistry experiments, which may include mouse models, cell culture, immunostaining, and protein and nucleotide analysis.

    Conditions of Employment:

    • In addition to the minimum qualifications, the fellow must be willing and able to sustain prolonged periods of sitting and/or standing in the laboratory environment.
    • Must be willing and able to handle, carry, and lift objects encountered in the research setting, up to 10 kg in weight.
    • Must be willing and able to work in a standard research environment that may contain fumes, chemicals, liquid nitrogen, sharp objects, hazardous materials, tissue, and body fluids.
    • Must be willing and able to maintain regular working hours and report timely research progress to colleagues and supervisor.
    • Must be willing and able to work with complex laboratory equipment, chemical solutions, and biological materials.
    • Must be willing and able to travel nationally or internationally to scientific conferences up to twice a year where required and approved.

    Knowledge, Skills and Abilities:

    • Excellent spoken and written communication skills and evidence for effective communication of science.
    • Ability to work independently and as part of a team and maintain a healthy and respectful work environment

    Salary and Benefits:
