Job Description:
A new Postdoctoral Fellow position is open immediately at the Division of Cancer Biology, MetroHealth Medical Center, and Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, Cleveland, Ohio, USA. Our research focuses on the basic molecular mechanisms controlling malignant behaviors of prostate cancer, glioma and squamous cell carcinoma. Current projects include the relationship between cancer stem cell properties and malignant progression and discovery of novel small molecule drugs targeting molecular pathways that drive tumor invasion and metastasis. For these purposes, we combine in vitro cell culture systems with genetically engineered mouse models (GEMM) as well as patient-derived xenografts (PDX). Over the years, the lab has made multiple seminal contributions to our current understanding of Eph receptor tyrosine kinases in tumor initiation and malignant progression (Oncogene 34:558, Cancer Cell 16:9; Nature Cell Biol. 3:527). Highly motivated cancer biologists with Ph.D., M.D., or both degrees, and proven record of research creativity and productivity are welcome to apply. Working experience using Transgenic/Knockout Mouse Models is valuable; knowledge of CRSPR/Cas9, Cell Signaling, Stem Cells, bioinformatics, or Drug Discovery is a plus. Competitive salary and generous benefit package will be provided for qualified candidates. Case Western Reserve University is an equal opportunity employer. Please send your C.V. and contact information for three references to: Dr. Eric BC Wang, email: bxw14@case.edu
