Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri, USA
Post-doctoral Fellowship on Brain Tumors
We have an exciting opportunity for a Postdoctoral Fellow to investigate molecular mechanisms underlying glioblastoma multiforme biology, including differentiation and invasiveness, with an emphasis on patient-derived cancer stem cells. Candidate should have an MD or PhD with expertise in molecular biology and biochemistry. Minimal time commitment is 2 years.
Washington University School of Medicine consistently ranks in the top 5 medical schools in the U.S.A. and is home to many of the United States' top scientists and physicians.
