Postdoctoral Fellow: Drs. Postovit (Queen's University, Canada), Larsson (Karolinska Institute, Sweden), and Topisirovic (LDI/McGill University, Canada)

Applications are solicited for a Postdoctoral fellow position focusing on a collaborative efforts initiated between the Postovit (Queen’s University, Kingston, Canada), Larsson (Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden) and Topisirovic (McGill University, Montreal, Canada) labs that are focused on understanding the mechanisms that underpin plasticity of cancer cells and their ability to adapt to stressors emanating from their environment (e.g., hypoxia) and therapeutic insults (e.g., chemotherapeutics). More specifically, we are looking for a candidate who is interested in joining a team with broad and complementary expertise (e.g., systems biology, developmental, molecular, cellular biology and bioinformatics) whose major goal is to dissect the mechanisms that orchestrate epigenetic, translational and metabolic programs in context of cancer cell plasticity using state-of-the-art cell line-based and in vivo models. To this end, the candidate will be exposed to a multidisciplinary training program comprising a variety of well-established molecular, cell biology and biochemical techniques as well as newly developed systems biology (epigenomics, translatomics, metabolomics) and associated bioinformatic approaches.
