The laboratory of Dr. Toshifumi Yokota invites applications for postdoctoral and graduate student positions in the Department of Medical Genetics at the University of Alberta. By utilizing integrative experimental and computational approaches, such as antisense oligonucleotides and CRISPR/Cas9, the focuses of our group are to develop novel molecular therapies for neuromuscular diseases and rare genetic diseases. Our group is actively collaborating with the world-class researchers and industry partners.
