Adaptation to Stress)
A post doctoral fellow position
will be available in the Section of Endocrine Physiology (SEP) of the Program
in Developmental Endocrinology and Genetics (PDEGEN), at the Eunice Kennedy
Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, beginning
August 2012. SEP investigates the neuroendocrine mechanisms of adaptation to
stress using a combination of physiological, molecular, biochemical, and
epigenetic approaches. Available projects focus either on the transcriptional
regulation of stress related neuropeptides, or the molecular mechanisms
determining pulsatile glucocorticoid secretion at the adrenal and pituitary
glands, or the effects of early life experiences or alterations in
glucocorticoid secretion on the transcriptome and epigenome. The laboratory is
located in the main Campus at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda,
Maryland. The research environment in NICHD is excellent and offers outstanding
opportunities for training.
