The Laboratory of Developmental Signaling, headed by An Zwijsen, is looking for a highly motivated and creative postdoctoral computational biologist/bioinformatician to join the team. The postdoctoral scientist will focus on the role of BMP signaling in endothelial plasticity. The project follows from the recent work on BMP signaling heterogeneity in different vascular endothelial phenotypes and cross-talk with Notch signaling (Moya et al., Dev Cell 2013; Beets et al., TIG, 2013). The project focuses on deciphering the dynamics and consequence of perturbation of BMP signaling cascades on effector oscillatory gene expression and cell competence/competition. The candidate will perform and analyze comparative transcriptome studies. The applicant is expected to model the oscillatory gene network. The computational analyses and models will be validated with independent perturbation experiments and will feed new experiments. more details are in the attachment with best regards Mark Fiers
