Junior Specialist, Canzio Laboratory, Weill Institute for Neurosciences UCSF Department of Neurology and School of Medicine The Canzio Laboratory seeks a Junior Specialist to join the Weill Institute for Neurosciences at the UCSF Mission Bay Campus starting in June. Our focus is on understanding the mechanism of generating neural cell surface identity by the Protocadherin (Pcdh) gene cluster. Pcdh proteins play a central role in neural circuit assembly, and have been implicated in neurological diseases, such as autism. Understanding the details of Pcdh gene regulation will not only provide the opportunity to discover fundamental insights into novel mechanisms of eukaryotic gene expression, but also lead to a better understanding of the genetic basis of neurological diseases. Under the supervision of the Principal Investigator, Daniele Canzio, the Junior Specialist will assist with a wide range of experiments using standard techniques in the area of specialty assigned such as:
