Postdoctoral positions at University of Pennsylvania

Postdoctoral positions are available in the laboratory of Dr. Jeremy Wang, Ralph L Brinster President’s Distinguished Professor, at the University of Pennsylvania to study meiosis and spermatogonial stem cells. Our group focuses on the study of germline development and meiosis in mice. Spermatogonial stem cells are vital to life-long production of sperm. Meiosis, a cell division unique to germ cells, allows the reciprocal exchange of genetic material between paternal and maternal genomes.
