A Postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory ofDr. Thomas De Raedt. The De Raedt lab aims to develop novel successful therapies,including immunotherapy,for children with brain tumors by dissecting the fundamental processes of tumor biology and by developing relevant mouse models. We currently are looking for a postdoctoral fellow to investigate how alterations in RAS pathway signaling,caused by loss of NF1,cooperates with mutations in the epigenetic driver ATRX. Full funding for the project is in place. Our laboratory uses a range of molecular and cellular biological techniques together with mouse models to elucidate the molecular basis of cancer. Importantly,whenever possible we extend and translate these findings and develop novel therapies that inspire clinical trials. We are located in one of the top children's hospital and university in the US and thus benefit from an excellent academic and professional environment. The successful candidate will join our growing dynamic team. (S)he will participate in the writing of project plans,publications and contribute to managing project efforts,additionally (S)he may help to supervise and mentor research members (students and/or technicians).
