POST: Postdoctoral researcher metabolism
in Cancer and Cardiovascular Biology
The National Heart, Lung, and
Blood Institute (NHLBI), a major component of the NIH, has an opening for a
postdoctoral researcher. The aim of our studies is to prevent cancer and
improve cardiovascular health. Specifically, we have been focusing on the role
of tumor suppressor p53 in regulating the mitochondria for energy and oxidative
stress handling that affects cardiovascular function and tumorigenesis (Curr
Opin Oncol 24(1):76-82; Nature Communications 1(1):1-8; Science,
312(5780):1650-3; Nature Medicine 7:1111-7). A related area of interest is the
role of oxygen homeostasis in pathogenesis.
REQUIREMENTS:
The postdoctoral candidate must
have obtained a Ph.D. and/or M.D. within the past five years. The ideal
candidate should have a strong molecular biology background demonstrated by
first-author publications in peer reviewed journals. The successful candidate
will be offered stipend commensurate with experience and supported with the
excellent intramural resources and environment of the main NIH campus.
TO APPLY:
Interested applicants should
submit their curriculum vitae, a statement of research interests and career
goals, along with the names, telephone numbers, postal, and e-mail addresses of
three references by June 30th, 2012
