The UNC Department of Genetics is recruiting tenure-track faculty!

[Michael Love @mikelove]

TT faculty position open at UNC-CH @UNC_SOM, search for individual:

“focused on cutting edge experimental mammalian genetics and/or genomics. … may have a comp. component, but experim. data generation should be at the foundation of the research program”

New today! An analysis of adipose gene expression by Mohlke & colleagues uncovers hundreds of candidates
for cardiometabolic traits, paving the way for many new avenues of research https://t.co/uu3AzFnRJa
