Scheduled Hours40Position SummaryThis position assists in developing and conducting research projects, including experiment design, data analysis and documentation of experiment results. The Jansen lab uses a combination of genetics, biomimetic systems, cell imaging, multi-color in vitro TIRF microscopy and single molecule techniques to study actin cytoskeleton dynamics. More specifically, we are focused on how two important, but heavily understudied families of actin-binding proteins, the Tropomyosins and the Coronins, play a role as regulatory hubs that generate different actin filament populations that are optimally suited to mediate intracellular trafficking, cell migration, cytokinesis or cell adhesion.Job
