Postdoctoral Fellow position

A postdoctoral fellow position

A postdoctoral position (or the Research Teaching Specialist position for the senior postdoc)  at Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey/Rutgers University (State University of New Jersey) are available. The research interest of our lab is to study the molecular mechanism of tumor suppressors in cancer. Specific research directions in the lab include: 1) molecular mechanisms of tumor suppressor p53 signaling and its gain-of-function mutants in cancer development and therapy; 2) molecular mechanisms of metabolic reprogramming and tumor microenvironment shaping (Some related publications: JCI, 2020, 130:3253.
