Stem Cell Biology

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill invites applications for two academic positions at the Assistant Professor level in Stem Cell Biology. The targeted faculty hirings are part of a Stem Cell Initiative to expand our program in the areas of stem cell translational research. Each successful candidate will be expected to develop a vigorous, externally funded research program based on fundamental questions related to the biology of embryonic or adult stem cells. Specific areas include: 1): Research exploring the molecular regulation of embryonic stem cell pluripotentiality and differentiation, including genomic remodeling and nuclear reprogramming. 2): Active research programs focused on defining the potential of both embryonic and adult stem cells in the treatment of neurological diseases.
