Post-Doctoral Research Fellows
to join our dynamic team dedicated to advancing cancer research and developing new treatments. Our research combines functional genomics and clinical genomics to uncover the molecular mechanisms driving cancer treatment resistance and to accelerate the development of novel therapeutic strategies. We use cutting-edge experimental approaches, including CRISPR, small molecule screening, and in vivo mouse modeling, with a focus on prostate cancer as a model system.Postdoctoral fellows will have the opportunity to lead independent research projects with direct translational relevance to cancer treatment. Key areas of investigation include understanding cancer progression and resistance mechanisms, identifying novel therapeutic targets, and exploring new combinatory therapeutic strategies. The fellow will play a crucial role in studies that bridge basic science with clinical applications, particularly in therapeutics exploiting DNA repair deficiencies and immune-based treatments.ResponsibilitiesDesign and execute independent research projects under the mentorship of Dr. Li.Apply for independent funding (intramural and extramural).Participate in grant writing, manuscript preparation, lab meetings, and journal clubs.Mentor junior lab members, including technicians and students.Contribute to and lead publications in high-impact journals.QualificationsMINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:PhD in cancer biology, molecular biology, tumor immunology, or a related field.Strong written and oral communication skills.Self-motivated, collaborative, and enthusiastic about cancer research.Ability to work independently and as part of a team.PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:Background in cancer immunotherapy research.Experience with large-scale omics data analysis and programming (R or Python).Proven track record of high-quality publications.Experience with molecular biology techniques (e.g., cell culture, CRISPR, NGS, immunohistochemistry).Independent postdoctoral research funding is a plus.We will consider applicants from diverse backgrounds and with different levels of experience.
