Currently, we are engaged in both basic and translational research, investigating the role of oxidative stress in regulating cardiovascular function and metabolism. We are using rodent models of disease, classical methods of gene and protein analysis, cell biology functional studies, high throughput studies and animal /cellular physiology and imaging studies.

The ideal candidate should have a recent PhD, MD or MD/PhD in the biological sciences, the ability to work independently, and a good background in cellular and molecular biology techniques including PCR, qRT-PCR, Western Blotting, co-Immunoprecipitation.
