Postdoctoral Position Developmental and Cancer Biology
Posted by __Deleted user__, on 6 February 2017
Closing Date: 15 March 2021
An NIH-funded postdoctoral researcher position is available immediately in Dr. Nadia Dahmane laboratory at Cornell University-Weill Cornell Medicine in the Department of Neurological Surgery to study the transcriptional regulation of normal brain development and brain tumor progression. Our group uses cell biology, mouse genetics, biochemical and genomic approaches to decipher the cellular and molecular mechanisms controlling brain development and brain tumor progression (e.g. Xiang et al. Cell Death and Differentiation 2012; Baubet et al., Development 2012,Tatard et al., Cancer Research 2010; Deng et al. Journal of Cell Science 2012).
We seek enthusiastic, highly qualified and motivated individuals to join our research group. The successful candidate should have a Ph.D. degree with a strong background in molecular biology, cell biology, and/or biochemistry. Research experience in developmental neuroscience, cancer biology and animal models of brain diseases would be considered advantageous.
Our laboratory is located on the Weill Cornell Medicine campus in New York City.
Please submit your CV and a cover letter outlining your research interests, career goals and the names of three referees with contact information to Dr. Nadia Dahmane at: nad2639@med.cornell.edu
