Open positions 

We are curently recruiting new lab members. Contact Dr. Amack at amackj@upstate.edu for additional information.

1) PhD students Rotation students welcome! Opportunities are available to join projects investigating the earliest events that determine the left-right body axis and guide organ development. Using zebrafish as a model vertebrate, projects involve gene editing, microscopy of living embryos, optogenetics, biophysics, and analysis of single cell dynamics. Interested in joining Upstate for graduate school? Apply to the PhD program here. 

2) Postdoctoral associate A postion is available to participate in a multidisciplinary project with Dr. Lisa Manning’s physics group to use the zebrafish left-right organizer as a model organ to understand how biophysical forces impact cell-scale and organ-scale shape changes.
