POSTDOCTORAL FELLOW POSITION to study IMMUNOBIOLOGY of CANCER

“Why are some self proteins able to induce significant immune responses when they are abruptly expressed in tumors?” Your work may be able to provide an answer to the above question and translate into immunotherapies against human cancers.

We are currently seeking a self-motivated postdoctoral fellow to work in the laboratory of Gang Zeng, Ph.D. The incumbent will investigate molecular interactions between cancer and the innate immune system in order to define signatures in human cancers that may function as molecular patterns to trigger significant innate immune pathways.

The incumbent should have a doctoral degree within the last 2 years and a strong background in biochemistry and immunology. Knowledge in dendritic cell biology and mouse models is a plus.

Interested candidates should forward their c.v. to
