英國(guó)比特森癌癥研究所2022年招聘博士后（肝疾病與再生）
Postdoctoral Research Scientist - Dr Thomas Bird
Cancer Research UK
Beatson Lab: Liver disease and regeneration
Project Title: Identifying subtype specific vulnerability in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
About us
The CRUK Beatson Institute where the lab is based is a world leading cancer research institute, situated in the vibrant city of Glasgow in Scotland and hosting approximately 60 postdoctoral researcher scientists at any one time. It has an excellent reputation for fundamental cancer research, including world-class metabolism studies and renowned in vivo modelling of tumour growth and metastasis.
Project outline
A postdoctoral position is offered in the Liver Disease and Regeneration group headed by Professor Tom Bird. As a group we have developed, and now are exploiting, a suite of genetically engineered mouse models of subtypes of Hepatocellular Carcinoma to explore and test the clinical utility of targeting subtype-specific pathways in this common cancer of unmet need.
The project will address the question of why a common and difficult to treat subtype of the disease is resistant to therapy and whether there are specific vulnerabilities that can be exploited during its development to treat it at an earlier stage. This will involve both pathway inhibition and interaction with tumour microenvironment particularly the immune microenvironment.
We work collaboratively with the state-of-the-art facilities throughout the Beatson and additionally with Industrial partners with a very focused view on how we can rapidly deliver novel therapies to clinical trials in patients. The project will involve significant work with animal models but aims to also integrate human multiomic data from project partners. Tissue analysis and experimental planning will be central components of the role also.
You must have a PhD in a relevant field, be ambitious, thorough and driven by scientific curiosity. Exisiting skills with regard to the use of animal models including holding a Personal License (PIL), and bioinformatic methods are especially desirable. A desire to work in translation science is essential.
