Re: Post-Doctoral Fellowship Available

["Kevin M. Crofton,Ph.D. 919-541-2672" <crofton@AM.HERL.EPA.GOV>]

I have an opening in my lab for a post-doc to study the PHAHs (PCBs, Dioxins). 
We have evidence that the developing nervous system is adversely impacted by
PHAH-induced alterations in thyroid hormones (see Goldey et al., Toxicol. Appl.
Pharmacol. 135:77-88, 1995).  A description of the fellowship is attached.
Please post this or pass it on as appropriate.

Please post this and disseminate as needed. 

Thanks,
Kevin M. Crofton
