Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute
Postdoctoral Associate - Ronai Lab (Aging, Cancer and Immuno-oncology)
Sanford Burnham Prebys is a preeminent, independent biomedical research institute dedicated to understanding human biology and disease, and advancing scientific discoveries to profoundly impact human health.
An exceptional post-doctoral training opportunity is available postdoctoral in the laboratory of Ze’ev Ronai in the Aging Onco-immunology Program at the SBP Discovery Cancer Center in La Jolla CA. The project will involve the characterization of novel signaling pathways in tumor microenvironment (including immune components) of melanoma that are controlled by ubiquitin ligases (Siah2 or RNF5). Training will engage work with genetic modified mouse models (conditional KO) coupled with extensive work using cell biology and biochemistry techniques. This training opportunity will engage computer-based analyses of signaling pathways in human tumor samples, coupled with state-of-the-art technologies (single cell RNAseq and alike). Candidates are expected to be self-motivated, intellectually driven multi-tasking individuals with proven record of accomplishments.
