招聘簡(jiǎn)介:美國(guó)安德森癌癥中心博士后職位
英文原文:
The Wantong Yao laboratory at MD Anderson Cancer Center is recruiting exceptional national and international post-doctoral fellows and students. We are seeking outstanding and motivated individuals who will join us in our quest to investigate therapeutic vulnerabilities and understand molecular implication of pancreatic cancer.
Our research is focused on identifying context-specific druggable vulnerabilities for oncogenic signaling and function, with a specific interest in surface proteins. We aim to gain deep molecular insights into the complicated array of oncogene-dependent and -independent events driving tumor progression to discover novel therapeutic approaches that target mechanism essential for cancer cell survival. We are currently using proteomic, genetic, molecular biological as well as biochemical technologies to identify context-specific druggable vulnerabilities required for oncogenic function in preclinic model system, such as genetically engineered mouse model and patient derived xenograft model. We have been focusing on gaining deep molecular insights into the complicated array of oncogenic Kras-dependent (published in Nature, 2019) and –independent (published in Cell, 2014) events driving tumor progression to discover novel therapeutic approaches that target mechanism essential for cancer cell survival. A few potential projects are:
1) Apply an in-house unbiased integrated target-discovery platform to identify novel therapeutic susceptibilities for pancreatic cancer and its environment
2) Dissect the detailed molecular mechanisms by which the identified novel targets regulate cancer cells and immune cells
3) Determine the cancer preventive impact of the genetic and pharmacological interruption of pro-cancerous events, Kras signaling and inflammation, on pancreatic cancer development and maintenance
4) Elucidate functional and targetable players of oncogene-dependent and -independent events in metabolic reprogramming, metastasis as well as drug resistance
Postdoctoral fellows and students joining the lab would also join a wide collaboration network across MD Anderson and other institutions. A tutorial in my laboratory will provide mentoring and hands-on experience with extensive training in topics and basic/advanced techniques that will be imperative for initiating a successful independent research career. The long-term goal of our laboratory is to build up a highly successful research team and work closely with fellow scientists and physicians to continue exploring the basic and translational problems of human cancer disease.
