　　Job Description

　　Postdoctoral Research Fellow: Pancreatic Cancer Metastasis

　　About the Lab:

　　The Mann lab has an opening for a post-doctoral fellow in cancer genomics research. We investigate the genetic interactions of drivers involved in the initiation and progression of pancreatic cancer. Using Sleeping Beauty (SB) insertional mutagenesis, we have uncovered novel interactions between new cancer drivers and known tumor suppressors that antagonize key signaling pathways and processes involved in tumorigenesis. We are looking for an individual interested in inter-disciplinary approaches to characterize how these drivers cooperate to promote pancreatic cancer progression, with the goal of identifying signaling nodes that may be explored for diagnostic or therapeutic efficacy to better treat cancer patients. More information about the lab can be viewed on our website http://labpages2.moffitt.org/mann_k.

　　Position Highlight:

　　A successful applicant will use molecular biology, genomics and proteomics analysis to dissect the mechanisms through which drivers cooperate to modulate cellular processes and signaling pathways during pancreatic cancer development and metastasis. This individual will work both independently and collaboratively and will be part of a team that consists of basic researchers, clinicians and computational biologists.

　　The Ideal Candidate:

　　• Has a strong foundation in molecular biology and mouse genetics

　　• Is experienced in mammalian cell culture and has working knowledge of RNAi and CRISPR-Cas9 technology

　　• Is familiar with NGS platforms and experimental design using genomics

　　Responsibilities:

　　• Learn research techniques that directly relate to the program’s scientific projects and goals with appropriate direction and supervision.

　　• Plan, conduct and document experiments independently; evaluate and interpret data with guidance.

　　• Develop scientific writing and presentation skills, including grant proposals, manuscript preparation and formal seminars presented to the Moffitt scientific community and at national scientific meetings.

　　Credentials and Qualifications:

　　• PhD in Genetics, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry or related discipline earned within the last two years.

　　A competitive salary and benefits package will be offered to the successful candidate. Interested applicants should send a single PDF file that includes a current CV with recent publications, a personal statement of scientific interests and goals (2-page maximum) and contact information for three references to Dr. Karen Mann at Karen.Mann@moffitt.org

　　The Moffitt Cancer Center has an outstanding research environment and is the only NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in Florida. Established research cores in Molecular Genomics, Flow Cytometry, Proteomics and Microscopy support interdisciplinary research and interactive collaborations between researchers and clinicians to contribute to the prevention and cure of cancer.
