Postdoctoral fellowships or Researcher in cancer biology
The lab is currently seeking new postdoctoral fellows or experienced researchers to join funded projects in cancer biology
- Investigate tumor cell behavior in vivo and in vitro to understand autocrine paracrine signaling mechanisms and outcomes in gynecological cancers
- Investigate cellular stressors ( hypoxia, matrix detachment and chemotherapy) as regulators of emergent cell behavior that includes but not limited to metastatic behavior and drug resistance
New and free ideas pertinent to ovarian cancers, signaling modulation and cell stressors are welcome
Preferred qualifications: For Post doctoral level research, candidates must possess a PhD or M.D., or both, and have a track record of productivity, demonstrate independent oral and written communication skills, and evidence of creativity.
