Are you intersted in studying processes of animal chromatin regulation? Do you wake up in the middle of the night and ask, how do those cells manage all that DNA in the nucleus? Looking for a biochemistry lab to satisfy your yearning to understand ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling protein complexes? Want to join the Kingston Lab?

Top: Dr. Kingston is affiliated with Harvard Medical School and the Department of Genetics.
Middle: The Wellman Research Building. The Department of Molecular Biology is on Floors 8-11. Call from the Lobby to go up.

Below: The Charles River Plaza. Future home of the Department of Molecular Biology and Kingston Lab. Slated for moving in June.

Prospective graduate students should apply to the PhD program at Harvard Medical School. Visit the link below for the Biological and Biomedical Sciences (BBS) program or the Department of Genetics. Once in the program, contact Dr. Kingston by email to arrange a rotation. Although the Kingston lab is located at MGH, regular shuttles run from Harvard Med School in the Longwood area to MGH.

Talented postdoctoral applicants should first contact Dr. Kingston regarding availability of space and email a copy of your CV. Should space not be a problem (usually forcasted a year in advance), and other requirements met, you'll be invited to come for an interview and lab seminar. Application packages can be mailed to:

Dr. Robert Kingston
Department of Molecular Biology
Masschusetts General Hospital
55 Fruit St. Wellman 10, Boston, MA 02114

The Kingston Lab is currently located on the 10th Floor of the Wellman Research building, on the main Boston campus of the Massachusetts General Hospital. We share the floor with the Ausubel and Oettinger labs. To visit the lab, please contact us to set an appointment. The Hospital is accessible by the T subway at the Charles/MGH stop. When you enter the lobby of Wellman, use the phone to call the lab, because the elevators are security locked.

In June, the Department of Molecular Biology will be moving to new labs at 100 Charles River Plaza. This building is located right adjacent to MGH and the current Wellman building.
