    We evaluate pathological changes in reference to normal organ structure and function that have been characterized by basic studies.

    The overall objective is to develop and test hypotheses for the mechanism(s) of pathogenesis of calf muscle and consequent lower-limb dysfunction seen in these patients, and to identify potential targets for therapy.

    We make use of high-quality biopsies of normal and diseased human muscle to study pathological changes in abundance, structure, and function of molecular, subcellular, and cellular subsystems including myofibers, intercellular connective tissue, microvessels, intracellular molecular networks, and molecular messengers.

    This is accomplished by robust quantification of these subsystems by Quantitative Fluorescence Microscopy, PCR analysis, gel electrophoresis, Western blot analysis, polarography, enzyme assay, and Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay.

    The individual will be able to implement the quantitative analytical methods listed and efficiently develop skills for implementing laboratory variations of these methods.

    Salary and benefits will be commensurate with experience. Applications are now being accepted online at

    from diverse backgrounds are encouraged to apply.

    Required Qualifications


    Candidates for this position must have a PhD, MD, or both and must have excellent skills in basiclaboratory operations and in researching the biomedical research literature for the purposes ofestablishing the background for specific studies of PAD, planning research protocols, and enhancing methodologies for investigating relevant pathological changes of calf muscle subsystems.

    Supplemental Qualifications


    The Candidate must have excellent problem-solving skills and be able to work independently as wellas with a team of investigators.

    This individual must have excellent writing and oral-communicationskills and will maintain accurate and detailed records of procedures performed and outcomes.

    Making use of these data, the successfulcandidate will assist in the preparation of manuscripts and grant applications.

    Publication in peer-reviewed journals will be of great value for successful work and is therefore an essential requirementfor the Candidate.
