Virtual Cores Day – September 24^th, 2020

The Biomedical Research Core Facilities are delighted to be hosting a virtual version of the annual Cores Day event!

Join them in the morning for live BlueJeans presentations from core facilities across CHOP, Penn, and Wistar; and feel free to “stop by” in the afternoon for a series of informal core facility Q&A sessions. 

This event showcases the many outstanding biomedical research resources and services available throughout our campus, and is an opportunity for you to interface with more than 60 research core facilities.  

Please visit https://www.med.upenn.edu/cores/cores-day-2020.html for more information.

Please send any questions to April Weakley (aweakley@pennmedicine.upenn.edu).

The laboratory is focused on mRNA processing, RNA-binding proteins, the role of U1 snRNP in transcription regulation and polyadenylation, the SMN complex and neurodegenerative diseases. Current studies involve biochemistry, molecular biology, cell biology and bioinformatics. Experience in any of these areas is desirable.

Twice a year, University of Michigan Medical School hosts Postdoc Preview, a recruiting event that awards 20 upper-level graduate students the opportunity the opportunity to explore the extensive postdoctoral research and training opportunities in biomedical sciences available at U-M. During a three-day virtual visit (November 9-11, 2020), invited candidates will have the opportunity to interview with prospective mentors, network with current postdocs, and learn about life in Ann Arbor. Applicants are selected from a national pool of candidates who expect to complete their thesis research by Summer 2021. Applications are open until September 30, 2020. 

Research areas include: Bioinformatics, Biological Chemistry, Biophysics, Cancer Biology, Genetics & Genomics, Immunology, Microbiology, Pathology, Molecular & Integrative Physiology, Neuroscience, Pharmacology, and more.
