Postdoc in glioma biology : San Francisco, CA, United States

A Postdoc position is available in the Diaz lab at UCSF (https://diazlab.ucsf.edu), funded by grants from the NIH and private foundations. As a member of the UCSF Brain Tumor Center (https://braintumorcenter.ucsf.edu/) our mission is the development of therapeutics for brain cancers. Our core competencies include bioinformatics and systems biology. 
We have ongoing research efforts to study local immunosuppression in brain tumors by profiling clinical specimens using single-cell technologies. In the next two years, we anticipate generating several hundred-thousand single-cell mRNA libraries from several hundred human adult and pediatric brain tumors. Additionally, we are performing DNA sequencing, CyTOF profiling, and have clinical data for many of these samples. We’re looking for a postdoc to take a leadership role in these projects.
The duties of the postdoc will include single-cell mRNA library preparation, CyTOF mass-imaging experiments, and related analyses. The minimum requirements for the position are: 1) a PhD in the biomedical sciences; 2) experience with basic molecular biology techniques (experience with single-cell sequencing technologies is a plus); 3) multiple first-author papers in respectable journals; 4) fluency in English, and the interpersonal skills to negotiate professional interactions in a diverse environment; and 5) the willingness to work hard in the pursuit of shared goals. 
Interested candidates should send an email to aaron.diaz@ucsf.edu, with the following:
- CV
