We are currently focusing on dissecting the various Toll-NF-kB signaling pathways in regulating immunity gene expression. Our genetic screens and DNA microarray assays have also identified new components in the immune response. Individuals with training in molecular biology is essential and training in Drosophila genetics is desirable. However, overall enthusiasm in studying Drosophila innate immunity will be the key consideration. UMass Medical School is a rapidly expanding research institution, located approximately 35 miles from Boston. Our program has 15 active investigators and comprise a very active research environment. Applicants interested in pursuing above mentioned projects in my laboratory should contact me directly at Tony Ip, Ph.D. Program in Molecular Medicine UMass Medical School 373 Plantation Street, Rm 109 Worcester, MA 01605 USA Phone 508-856-5136 Fax 508-856-4289 email Tony.Ip@umassmed.edu --- .
