The Position

We advance science so that we all have more time with the people we love.

The Opportunity:

We are seeking a highly motivated and independent candidate for a Postdoctoral Fellowship in the laboratory of Louis Vermeulen at the department of Discovery Oncology to investigate how tissue context in concert with specific oncogenic events drives cancer development in various organs. Our group focuses on the role of key oncogenic pathways in cancer in initiation and progression of the disease, e.g. the Wnt pathway in tumorigenesis in the gut. You will join a collaborative and multidisciplinary department that is committed to tackle the most challenging problems in cancer research.

Who You Are:

• A PhD degree in Cellular or Molecular Biology is required along with strong experience in cancer biology or a related field.

• Experience with advanced cell culture methods (in particular organoids), omics technologies, computational analyses skills and CRISPR/Cas9 technology is highly desired.

• You are technically rigorous, curious and creative.

• In addition, you have good communication skills and are able to clearly present complex research projects and results to experts with different backgrounds.

• Must also have advanced at least one key research project as evidenced by a first author paper published or accepted in a leading peer-reviewed journal.
