Postdoctoral Position Open
Molecular Neurogenetic Study of the
Drosophila Chemosensory (smell and taste) Systems.
in the Institute of Molecular Biology, Academia Sinica, Taiwan, Rep. of China
My lab has taken several approaches to study the chemosensory systems of
Drosophila, with the aim of identifying the genes involved in their function
and development. (1) Using behavior assays, we have isolated several olfactory
and several taste mutants. These mutations are now being characterized. They
were induced by P element insertional mutagenesis, so cloning the corresponding
genes should be relatively easy. (2) Using differential screening, we have
isolated a few cDNA clones preferentially expressed in the antennae, the
olfactory organ. One of these has been sequenced and is found to be a novel
gene. More characterization are underway. (3) We are screening for monoclonal
antibodies specific for antennal antigens.
The Institute of Molecular Biology offers excellent facilities and research
atmosphere. You need to speak either English or Chinese. Interested person
please contact me and send two letters of recommendation.

Postdoctoral Position in Molecular Neurobiology of Drosophila:
To study the Drosophila olfactory and gustatory (smell and taste) systems
by molecular biology and neurogenetics; cloning and characterization of genes
involved in the olfactory or gustatory responses. Experience in molecular
biology or eletrophysiology is preferred. Excellent international working
environment and facility. Proficiency in Chinese is not required. Salary starts
at NT$35,000/month. Interested person please contact me and send CV and two
letters of reference.
