The invasive species research group in the Moeller Lab studies the biogeography, ecology, and evolution of invasive plants in the Upper Midwest to try and better predict invasion risk, especially in the face of global climate change. In spring/summer 2023, we will be starting a large field experiment to test for local adaptation and pre-adaptation to climate change in the invasive plant, common tansy. We will establish planting sites at four areas across the state and in each site we will manipulate temperature (warming conditions) and precipitation (drought simulation with rain-out shelters). The experimental sites are across MN (outside Moorehead, MN; outside Duluth, MN; Southwest MN, and St. Paul Campus, UMN).
Contact Ryan Briscoe Runquist (rbriscoe@umn.edu) for questions or apply by sending a short cover letter and CV/resume.

Postgraduate position in RNA biology and Immunology in the Grace Chen Lab at Yale University
7 April 2023The Chen lab aims to generate novel therapies to treat cancer and autoimmune diseases<br>based on our basic science understanding about RNA function and regulation. We investigate the mechanisms and regulation of circular RNAs (circRNAs), a newly identified class of ubiquitous RNAs in essentially all eukaryotes and some viruses. Thus far, circRNAs have been found to function as miRNA sponges, regulate transcription, and act as templates for translation. However, there are still many unanswered questions: What other functions do circRNAs possess? How are circRNAs degraded? What are their interacting proteins? Specifically, we aim to understand how different layers of regulation including RNA modifications and cellular localization affect RNA function to enable new insights into both normal function and how dysregulation leads to disease. The Chen Laboratory applies molecular, cellular, and chemical biology techniques coupled with next-generation sequencing to address these questions.
