Molecular bases and functional implications of cellular heterogeneity in pancreatic cancer (Ref. 2024-07-GN/62)

We are recruiting a postdoctoral scientist to investigate the molecular bases and therapeutic implications of cellular heterogeneity in pancreatic cancer.

 

The project is based on the use of complementary cutting-edge genomics and proteomics coupled with functional genomics technologies. It involves tight interactions with other members of a team working on pancreatic cancer and with the broad community of experimental and computational biologists of the IFOM-IEO Campus in Milan.

 

The applicants should hold a PhD and have expertise in research areas related to molecular biology, genomics and/or proteomics.

 

Interested candidates are encouraged to submit their curriculum vitae, a short presentation of their research interests and the name of two referees to Gioacchino Natoli ([email protected]).

 

Deadline for applications: September 15, 2024
