Job Number : 81796
Location : San Francisco, US
Job Description :
The Gordanlab at UCSF is looking for a talented and engaged scientist to lead a collaborative project studying oncogenic activation of Protein Kinase A (PKA). The lab is located in the dynamic environment of the Quantitative Biosciences Institute at UCSF Mission Bay and uses quantitative proteomics and functional genetics to enable cancer target discovery. We have worked extensively on PKA in the context of Fibrolamellar Carcinoma, a rare liver cancer of young adults. The candidate would participate in an NCI-funded collaboration between the Gordan lab, and other institutions, investigating the biochemical and growth mechanisms driven by oncogenic PKA. The Gordan lab’s focus in this project is the generation of PKA-driven models from iPS cells, their proteomic and functional profiling, and in vivo therapeutic assessment.
Applicants from a variety of backgrounds would be welcome, but experience with wet lab experimental science is required. Optimal candidates will be independent, motivated and value working in teams, with demonstrated success in project management and leadership. Candidates with experience in drug development, primary cell culture, or systems biology will be preferred. Successful candidates must have a PhD and / or MD in a related discipline. Please respond by e-mail to John Gordan with a statement of interest and career objectives, CV, and names with contact information for three references.
