The Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine at the University of Washington in Seattle, has a Postdoctoral Scholar position immediately available to model genetic cardiomyopathies with human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) in the laboratory of Dr. Daniel Yang. By using high-throughput deep mutational scanning techniques in clinically actionable cardiomyopathy genes, we aim to determine the phenotypic consequences of thousands of genetic variants to assist with variant interpretation and to elucidate variant-specific mechanisms. This is an exciting, collaborative project involving functional genomics, cardiovascular disease modeling, stem cell biology, and high-throughput gene-editing and phenotyping. Candidates should be highly motivated and have demonstrated experience in molecular biology and cell culture. Experience with hiPSCs is not mandatory but desirable. This position will primarily be in Dr. Daniel Yang's laboratory with the opportunity to work closely with collaborators in the Department of Genome Sciences.
