Designation/Position- Postdoctoral Positions in Chicago
Beach Lab, Oakes Lab, Chicago invites application for Postdoctoral Positions in Chicago from eligible and interested candidates
About- The Beach Lab investigates how cells build contractile forces. These forces are critical many cellular processes, such as cell migration and cell division. Our primary approach is to use high-resolution and super-resolution imaging techniques to determine how cells control the spatio-temporal assembly dynamics of myosin motor proteins.
