Responsibilities

The fellow will lead laboratory efforts in one or more cancer sites (i.e., breast or pancreas cancer). In addition to molecular and cellular laboratory bench skills, excellent organizational and database skills are required. The position will require contribution both as an individual and as part of a larger team and will involve all aspects of research from experimental design to manuscript preparation and publication. This will involve interaction with epidemiologists, biostatisticians and other laboratory scientists so excellent writing and communication skills are necessary.

Qualifications

A Ph.D. degree in the field of molecular biology, cellular biology, biochemistry or a related field is required. Experience in the use of immunoassays would be considered an asset.
