inStem (http://instem.res.in), a new institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine collaborates and is located at the National Centre for Biological Sciences (NCBS, www.ncbs.res.in) of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in Bangalore India. InStem-NCBS and the Institute for Integrate Cell-Material Sciences (iCeMS), Kyoto University, Japan (www.icems.kyoto-u.ac.jp/e) have a partnership program, in which each institute has its satellite laboratories in the other institute. In collaboration with iCeMS, inStem has set up a laboratory for the study of fundamental aspects of pluripotent stem cells, reprogramming and regenerative medicine. This Stem Cell Biology Laboratory is led by Kouichi Hasegawa who has laboratories in both inStem and iCeMS. The director of iCeMS, Dr. Norio Nakatsuji is an active collaborator and a visiting professor at inStem and NCBS.
Two positions are currently available for talented and driven candidates who are interested in a career in regenerative biology. Current projects include the study of molecular mechanisms in human pluripotent stem cell (ES/iPS cell) self-renewal, reprogramming and differentiation archived by molecular and chemical biology approaches, and also technological innovation for stem cell applications (PNAS 2008, 15,13781–13786; Stem Cells 2009, 27, 2969-2978; Cell Stem Cell 2010, 6, 521-531; Stem Cells 2010, 28, 1338-1348). In addition, we are currently studying identification of new biomarkers of tissue progenitors and cancer diagnosis by using differentiated pluripotent stem cells.
Applicants must have doctoral degree and experience in cell- and molecular- biology. Those with expertise and understanding of epigenetics and of approaches that include genome and/or other ‘omics’ approaches are also encouraged to apply. Highly motivated individuals enthusiastic to work in the area of stem cells, development, reprogramming and differentiation may e-mail curriculum vitae along with three references to:
Kouichi Hasegawa, Ph.D.
inStem, NCBS (Email: koichih@ncbs.res.in) or
iCeMS, Kyoto University (Email: khasegawa@icems.kyoto-u.ac.jp).
