Applications are invited for a Wellcome Trust funded Research Fellow position (Postdoc or close to PhD completion) to join the lab of Dr Jimena Berni at BSMS, situated in the University of Sussex Falmer campus. We investigate how Hox genes orchestrate the diversification of motor circuits during nervous system development. The position is available for nine months starting on the 1st of April or as soon as possible thereafter. The post-holder will start at a critical stage where the last results need to be gathered to finish a publication. They will use Drosophila melanogaster to follow up on our recent discovery that the neuronal morphology of neurons is regulated by the post mitotic expression of Hox genes.
