[交流] Postdoctoral Fellow and/or visiting scholar positons at UIowa 已有2人参与

Two Postdoctoral Fellow positions and/or visiting scholar positions are available immediately in Drs. Bing-Hua Jiang (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=jiang+bh) and Ling-Zhi Liu's (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=liu+ling-zhi) groups in the Department of Pathology, the University of Iowa (UIowa), Iowa City,IA 52242, USA. Our research areas of interests are to identify novel signaling pathways and mechanisms that regulate tumor initiation, angiogenesis, and development. We will focus on the study and mechanism of initiation and progression of human cancers that are induced by environmental factors, such as metal carcinogens. Through this program, we will identify new mechanisms, biomarkers, and/or therapeutic targets for cancer prevention and treatment in the future. Our group initially finds that PI3K signaling pathway, ROS and miRNAs play important roles in tumor angiogenesis and drug resistance. For more information, please read some of our related work in Cancer Res. 67(22):10823, 2007; EMBO Rep. 13(12):1116, 2012; Autophagy. 11(2):373, 2015; Oncogene. 34(43):5482, 2015; Toxicol Sci. 134(1):26, 2013; Environ Health Perspect. 122(3):255, 2014; Oncotarget. 7(14):17805, 2016. For the Postdoctoral Fellow position, a Ph.D. degree in molecular biology or other biomedical science with good research experience is required. We greatly appreciate the application from candidates from minority groups or with good experience in tumor microenvironment, database analysis, or/and 1-4 years of training in USA. For visiting scholar, we hope the candidates have techniques of molecular biology such as cell culture, RNA, DNA and protein detection. We have enough funding support for these position in our department. Our Institute offers excellent research environment, and competitive salary based on experience and effort. For consideration, please send your curriculum vitae, and the names of three references to: Dr. Ling-Zhi Liu at ling-zhi-liu@uiowa.edu.
