A postdoctoral position is available at the Gene Regulation Section, Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Center for Cancer Research, NCI, to study the molecular genetics of thyroid cancer using cell-based studies, xenograft and mouse models. In particular, the possible involvement of cancer initiation cells and the collaborative cross talks of oncogenic signaling of mutant thyroid hormone receptors with other cellular signaling pathways (e.g., p53) in carcinogenesis will be studied. Candidates must have a Ph.D. and/or MD, received within the past two years, an intense passion for research and science, and a strong training/experiences in biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, molecular genetics and cancer biology. Applicants should submit a complete CV with a photo and a list of publications, a statement of interests and career goals, a copy of Ph.D and/or MD diploma, and 3 letters of recommendation. The NIH is dedicated to building a diverse community in its traini!
