The Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center along with the Department of Medicine at the University of Miami, Miller School of Medicine is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow with in-depth knowledge and extensive skills in cellular and molecular biology to join the lab. This position will be involved with a translational research project studying the control of DNA repair pathways. The laboratory focuses on studying the regulation of DNA repair pathways in normal and malignant cells. Projects will include in vivo and in vitro modeling of candidate genes to identify new regulators of DNA repair pathways that contribute to the maintenance of genomic stability and characterization of candidate genes using in vitro and in vivo systems.

Minimum Qualifications

Ph.D. or other doctoral degree in a science related field of study, or M.D. Should demonstrate expertise in various lab techniques including cell culture and molecular biology assays (molecular cloning, cell proliferation assay, subpopulation analysis by FACS, stable and transient transfection, use of shRNA and viral constructs), preparation and analysis of DNA and RNA (preparation of plasmids, regular PCR and RT-PCR), chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays, biochemical assays (ELISA, immunoblotting, Co-IP). Prior experience in DNA repair is preferred but not required. Prior experience in molecular biology, biochemistry and cancer genetics is preferred. It is expected that the candidate will have the ability to work independently, design experiments with appropriate controls, collect and tabulate data, publish and present results, as well as to participate in the training of graduate and rotation students in a research laboratory setting. Skill in collecting, organizing, and analyzing data. Ability to recognize, analyze, and solve a variety of problems. Ability to exercise sound judgment in making critical decisions.
