Our laboratory focuses on understanding the fundamental mechanisms in human carcinogenesis using integrative approaches including bioinformatics, proteomics and murine models of human cancers for development of improved therapeutic application and chemoprevention. Current ongoing projects include studying a role of an orphan nuclear receptor, NR2E3, in breast cancer (EMBO Mol Med 2012 4(1):52-67), identifying and defining a role of long non-coding RNAs using RNA immunoprecipitation assay (RIP) combined with NGS in cancer epigenetics (Oncogene. 2013 32(13):1616-25), characterizing a novel pro-oncogenic microRNA/ZBTB4 network in cancer (Oncogene 2012 31(8):1034-44; Mol Cancer Ther 2012 11(9):1852-62).
Qualifications: Successful candidates must hold a doctoral-level degree or should anticipate PhD degree with solid background of cancer biology, molecular biology and possibly experience about animal models of cancer. The candidate who is motivated to explore a new field of non-coding RNAs and a novel role of orphan nuclear receptor, NR2E3, in breast cancer is highly desirable. Salary will be between $ 38,000 - 42,000 and commensurate with qualifications and experience.

To apply: Applicants should send a CV including a brief description of your research experience and career goal, and the names and contact information of three references via email below:
