genetics and the ability to work independently. 

Our research is focused on identifying and studying the gene/s mutated in a hereditary myopathy
associated with Paget disease of bone and/or frontotemporal dementia. We are using linkage
analysis, physical mapping, classical methods of gene and protein analysis, gene expression
array technology, cell biology functional and biochemical studies, and animal studies.
Experience with these techniques will be an asset.
