A postdoctoral position is available immediately at Fox Chase Cancer Center (Philadelphia, PA) for a highly motivated individual in structural biology and cell signaling. The main focus of the lab is to understand the molecular basis for the cell signaling events that regulate cell motility. We collaborate with cancer biologists and clinicians at Fox Chase Cancer Center to investigate the pathological mechanisms of the signaling molecules in cancer development and metastasis. The lab is equipped with instruments to employ a combination of techniques including binding kinetics analysis, functional assays in mammalian cells, automated protein crystallography, and genetic analysis. Our study will contribute significantly to the understanding of the formation and regulation of cell migration and adhesion, and will facilitate efforts to discover novel targets for therapeutic intervention of tumor metastasis and other related diseases. More details can be found at https://www.foxchase.org/people/jinhua-wu. The candidate should have strong experiences in at least one of the following research fields: protein biochemistry, cell biology, X-ray crystallography, and cancer biology. The candidate should receive a Ph.D. degree within three years. Fox Chase Cancer Center is a long-standing NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center with multidisciplinary research interests from basic biological sciences to drug development and clinical studies. The institute is one of the top-ranked work places for postdoctoral researchers. It offers an outstanding research environment and strong support for postdoctoral career development, including subsidized housing and child care. Please send a personal statement describing previous research experience and current interests, an updated CV, and a list of three references to: Jinhua.wu(at)fccc.edu.
