| Description: |
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) conducts and supports research on many of the most serious diseases affecting public health. The institute supports much of the clinical research on the diseases of internal medicine and related subspecialty fields as well as many basic science disciplines. The Institute's Division of Intramural Research encompasses the broad spectrum of metabolic diseases such as: diabetes, obesity, inborn errors of metabolism, endocrine disorders, mineral metabolism, digestive and liver diseases, nutrition, urology and renal disease, and hematology. Basic research studies include: biochemistry, biophysics, nutrition, pathology, histochemistry, bioorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, chemical and molecular biology, and pharmacology. NIDDK extramural research is organized into four divisions: Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolic Diseases; Digestive Diseases and Nutrition; Kidney, Urologic and Hematologic Diseases; and Extramural Activities. The Institute supports basic and clinical research through investigator-initiated grants, program project and center grants, and career development and training awards. The Institute also supports research and development projects and large-scale clinical trials through contracts. |

Postdoctoral positions are available in the Metabolic Diseases Branch, NIDDK, to perform research studies examining the mechanisms of imprinting of the GNAS gene, and the role of Gs-alpha and other GNAS gene products in the regulation of glucose and...
-
A postdoctoral position is available at the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, to study processes that regulate tubular morphogenesis and their relevance to clinical disease. The latter includes polycystic kidney disease (PKD), which is one...
-
The role of cytokines in maintaining stem/progenitor cell characteristics including cytoprotection during stress response is being investigated. Emphasis is on transcriptional regulation and models of proliferation and differentiation including stem/...

A Postdoctoral Fellowship is available in the Division of Intramural Research, NIDDK, NIH. Members of the Metabolic Diseases Branch of NIDDK helped discover two genes causing hereditary endocrine cancers (MEN1 and HRPT2). Main efforts are directed at...
-
A Postdoctoral position is available immediately to study the consequences of the CGG⋅CCG-repeat expansion in the 5' UTR of the FMR1 gene. Expansion at this locus results in Fragile X associated tremor and ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), Fragile X...
-
Fragile sites are regions of chromosomes that appear as gaps or constrictions in metaphase spreads. They are frequently associated with chromosome breakage and translocation. Their molecular basis is unknown but is thought to involve problems with...
