PhD Job: Postdoctoral research fellow in cancer and inflammation<\/strong> A POSTDOCTORAL POSITION<\/strong> is available immediately to study signal transduction pathways that control the development of the monocyte\/macrophage lineage from hematopoietic stem\/progenitor cells. We are particularly interested in the origin and role of these cells in inflammatory diseases, including cancer where tumor associated macrophages and abnormal myeloid derived cells may have a very important role in tumor progression. Hence a thorough understanding at the molecular level of these cells and interactions with the microenvironment will provide novel therapeutic targets.<\/p>\n Our lab uses cell culture and genetic mouse models and employ flow cytometry, fluorescence microscopy, retroviral\/lentiviral transduction, and RNA interference to address questions of interest as well as a wide variety of standard molecular and cellular biological techniques and biochemical methods. We are also using mass spectrometry to characterize the full spectrum of proteins expressed in myeloid lineage cells.
