Position Summary

Postdoctoral Research Associate Advertisement

• The Division of Hematology & Oncology, University of Nebraska Medical Center (Omaha), seeks a postdoctoral research associate to join Dr. Hingorani's lab.
  
  Our laboratory investigates molecular and cellular mechanisms of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) pathogenesis. The murine models of distinct genetic subtypes of pancreas cancer that we have developed form the basis of our integrated, systematic, and multidisciplinary research program. Our efforts are directed at identifying and overcoming stromal barriers to treatment (including elevated interstitial pressures, activated fibroblasts, and multiple mechanisms of immune suppression); identifying and disrupting molecular drivers of metastasis; and developing immune-based treatment strategies.
  
  Our ultimate aim is to take our discoveries and reduce them to practice in the clinic in order to radically transform the approach and prognosis for patients with this devastating disease. This position conducts translational research in a pancreas cancer laboratory and collaborates with faculty in ongoing and planned research.
