Dr. Joseph Cyrus (2001 Batch)
Position available: Ph.D. Candidate in Cell Biology and
Signaling
A graduate student position (Ph.D. candidate) is available (Fall
2011/Spring 2012) in the laboratory of Dr. Gonzalo M. Rivera at
Texas A&M University to study the role of cytoskeletal
remodeling in vascular and tumor cell biology. Experimental
approaches include tissue culture, molecular genetics, standard
molecular biology, proteomics, and high resolution optical
microscopy including confocal and TIRF imaging. Ambitious,
highly motivated candidates with a strong desire for learning
are encouraged to apply. A BS degree is required, and basic
laboratory techniques and training in molecular biology/genetics
are desirable. Interested candidates should send an e-mail
describing research interests and a CV including GPA and GRE
scores to Dr. Gonzalo Rivera at grivera@cvm.tamu.edu.

Ph.D. student in Epidemiology
A PhD student position is available in the area of epidemiology
under the supervision of Dr. Kevin Cummings at the Texas A&M
University College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical
Sciences. Research emphasis is the epidemiology of foodborne and
other zoonotic pathogens; current work focuses on Salmonella
among dairy and feedlot cattle. The graduate program will help
the successful candidate develop strong skills in epidemiology,
statistics, and veterinary public health. A DVM (or equivalent)
is preferred. However, applicants with a degree in animal
science, epidemiology, or statistics will be considered. Salary
will be commensurate with level of education and experience. The
successful candidate will join a vibrant group of researchers
and graduate students within the Epidemiology and Public Health
Program of the Department of Veterinary Integrative Biosciences.
The Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine and
Biomedical Sciences is recognized as a leader in research,
education, and service, and broad collaborative opportunities
are available throughout the University. Interested individuals
should send a curriculum vitae (CV), outline of research
interests and professional goals, and the names and contact
details of three references to Dr. Kevin Cummings (kcummings@cvm.tamu.edu).
Ph.D. student in Reproductive Biology
A graduate student position (Ph.D. candidate) is available in
the laboratory of Dr. Qinglei Li at Texas A&M University to
study the TGFβ signaling pathway in female reproductive
function. Highly motivated candidates with basic laboratory
techniques and training in reproductive biology, genetics, and
developmental biology have advantages. A BS degree and
willingness to work with mice are required. Interested candidate
should send an e-mail containing research interests and a CV
including GPA and GRE scores to Dr. Qinglei Li at qli@cvm.tamu.edu.
