Postdoctoral Fellow in Cancer Epigenetics 2013 USA

We are seeking for independent, ambitious, and self-motivated candidates for a postdoctoral fellow position to study the epigenetic mechanisms in cancer. The main goal of our laboratory is to develop innovative diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for glioma and other brain cancers.
Responsibility:
On the basis of our prior studies, the candidate will lead projects focused on the BET bromodomain proteins and other epigenetic regulators in glioma. The project will apply molecular, cellular, and bioinformatics tools as well as animal models to develop new epigenetic therapy and design rational drug combinations. There will be ample opportunities to collaborate with other investigators.
Requirements:The candidate is expected to have his/her doctoral degree awarded no more than 5 years ago in a biomedical research-related discipline, and demonstrate a proven track record of high-quality scientific research, as evidenced by publication record and letters of recommendation. Experience in epigenetics, cancer genetics and data mining would be preferred.
How to Apply:
Interested applicants should send a cover letter explaining their research interest and career goals, an updated CV, and contact details for 2 or more referees to jialiang.wang@vanderbilt.edu. Successful candidate will receive salary and benefits commensurate with prior experience and qualifications.
