The Hernandez lab is seeking a postdoctoral fellow to join the research program focused on interrogating the molecular underpinnings of metastatic colonization in order to interrupt the process prior to its completion. This line of investigation corresponds with a critical need in biomedical research, as metastases are the cause of greater than 90% of cancer [...]
The successful candidate will study the roles of epigenetic regulation and the p53 signaling pathway in mouse embryonic stem cells using CRISPR-Cas9 screening. The overarching goal of this project is to understand how the p53 signaling pathways maintains the genomic stability of embryonic stem cells. Number of Positions: 1 C.V. Required: Yes Number of References [...]
The Michael Mann Lab is dedicated to discovering the genetic events that drive the evolution of skin cancers, including melanoma. Our research program uses innovative genetic and genomic approaches, using both Sleeping Beauty transposon mutagenesis data from mouse cancer models and somatic mutation data from human cancer genomes, to discover the genetic and epigenetic events that initiate, [...]
Position Highlights: Dr. Michael B. Mann seeks a highly motivated, independent, and collaborative postdoctoral research fellow interested in conducting exciting inter-disciplinary research aimed at discovering and functionally testing the genetic and epigenetic drivers of skin cancer initiation, progression, and therapeutic resistance. Â The Ideal Candidate: Can demonstrate understanding of fundamental research methodologies, including how to [...]
