Volunteer Opportunity in Department of Psychiatry, UCSF My name is Jun Hoshino from Dr. Ben Cheyette Laboratory, Department of Psychiatry, UCSF. I am postdoctoral scholar and need a student volunteer for my work. I study signaling cascade called Wnt signaling that is involved in our body plan (our development) and cancer. Actually I research abnormal phenotype in gene targeted mice. Therefore I need help from the volunteer who is interested in those study. I expect the volunteer to handle mice, and to do the mouse genotype using tech called PCR. And then they can learn histological study if they want. I am well trained postdoctoral scholar fromUniversity of Tokyo. So they could learn a lot from me except for English. Deadline for applying: Nov 4th.
