4. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Tom Cooper lab at Baylor College of Medicine has open projects that investigate that investigate two related areas: (1) the mechanisms and physiological consequences of conserved alternative splicing transitions regulated during mammalian postnatal development and (2) the disruption of this regulatory network that is the pathogenic mechanism of the microsatellite expansion disease myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) that affects multiple tissues and is the most common cause of muscular dystrophy in adults. In DM1, the RNA expressed from the expanded allele disrupts regulation of a network of alternative splicing transitions that normally drive fetal to adult protein isoform expression. Expression of fetal protein isoforms unable to perform the functions required in adult tissue causes disease features. The investigations in these two areas are complementary and provide the basis for an exchange of ideas and collaboration within the lab.

10. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We are seeking a PhD post-doctoral fellow for appointment in our NIH/NHLBI T32 training grant, entitled “Collaborative Research Training in Thrombosis and Inflammation.” This program aims to train postdoctoral scientists for collaborative research careers in two inter-related topics: thrombosis and inflammation. There is increasing evidence of a direct relationship between thrombosis and inflammation in numerous human diseases. As examples, inflammation contributes to the pathogenesis of thrombotic disorders such as stroke and coronary artery disease, while thrombosis is linked to conditions associated with inflammation including obesity, cancer, sepsis, COVID-19, and many others. The fellow will train under the primary mentorship of a primary mentor and a mentoring committee composed of research faculty from the Center for Translational Research on Inflammatory Diseases (CTRID) a joint initiative between Baylor College of Medicine and the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center.

12. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The postdoctoral fellow will lead innovative research projects focused on studying the molecular convergence of neurodevelopmental disease, including autism, intellectual disability, and epilepsy. Almost 30% of genes implicated in neurodevelopmental disease encode transcriptional regulators. It is likely that many of these genes converge on shared downstream pathways, the identification of which could dramatically accelerate drug discovery. To identify these pathways, the postdoctoral fellow will use human iPSC-derived neurons and cutting-edge approaches, including single-cell RNA-seq, chromatin profiling, and electrophysiology assays.
