Applications are invited for a position as postdoc in cancer biology in the laboratory of DNRF Chair and Novo Nordisk Faculty Professor Vijay Tiwari (https://www.tiwarilab.com/), Department of Molecular Medicine, University of Southern Denmark (SDU).
The position is available from August 1, 2023 (or as soon as possible thereafter) for one year with a possibility of prolongation for another 3 years.
Department of Molecular Medicine aims to generate new knowledge on the function of the human body and disease mechanisms, thereby contributing to improved human health. The Department of Molecular Medicine hosts an interdisciplinary group of experts in neurobiology and cancer biology and is in close proximity to the experts in genomics, proteomics and chromatin biology. Such a promising environment elicits translational collaborations with clinical practice and research toward understanding mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of various human diseases.
The postdoc will lead research on gene regulatory mechanisms underlying cancer metastasis and chemoresistance. The group addresses these aims by employing state-of-the-art cancer biology in combination with genomics and computational biology approaches. The research in Tiwari lab is supported by a cutting-edge research environment as well as globally reputed local and international collaborators.
