Overview

Touro University Nevada College of Osteopathic Medicine is recruiting a post-doctoral scholar to study mechanisms of extracellular vesicle-mediated cell-cell communication in cancer. This is a two-year full-time position with an annual salary and fringe benefits.

The Lorico lab at TUN has discovered a novel nuclear transport pathway for extracellular vesicle cargo and developed novel inhibitors of this pathway. The long-term goal of this research is to understand fundamental molecular mechanisms of extracellular vesicle transport in the recipient cells and develop novel therapies for metastatic disease.

The lab uses a diverse toolkit to address research questions from cellular biology to proteomics to mouse models of disease and human samples. State-of-the-art approaches in the lab include extracellular vesicle flow cytometry, high-resolution microscopy and single-molecule characterization of extracellular vesicle subtypes. The lab environment is dynamic and collaborative.

Candidates should have a PhD with demonstrated skills in basic cellular and molecular biology techniques. Experience in extracellular vesicle biology, high-resolution microscopy, mouse tumor xenografts and/or cancer biology is especially desirable. Successful candidates will be hard-working, highly motivated and team players.

Located in Henderson, Nevada, approximately twenty-five minutes from the notorious Las Vegas strip, Touro University Nevada is a non-profit medical, health sciences, and education graduate university focused on positively impacting our community in healthcare and education. Our values surrounding social justice, intellectual pursuit, and service to humanity are steadfast and are clearly visible in the actions of our students, faculty, staff, and graduates.
