Position description

The G.O. Discovery Laboratory at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar. The laboratory is affiliated with the UCLA Eli and Edythe Broad Cell Research Center, Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center, and the Molecular Biology Institute. This appointment will be under the supervision of Professor Sanaz Memarzadeh, M.D., Ph.D., in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine.

Applications are being sought from recent Ph.D., M.D., or M.D./Ph.D. graduates with a strong background in molecular and cell biology. Candidates are expected to have experience with microscopy, immunohistochemistry, FACS analysis, virology, and immunology. Experience with small animal surgical procedures are strongly preferred. The ideal candidate should be highly motivated and have publications in peer reviewed journals with at least two being the first author.

The candidate will be part of a scholarly team performing research aimed at developing more effective treatment strategies for therapy of ovarian cancers that can be taken from the laboratory and applied to clinical practice. The candidate will participate in funded translational research programs to study the mechanisms of therapy resistance in ovarian cancers. Focus areas of study will include but are not limited to DNA damage response, cancer initiating tumor cell subpopulations, and the role of immune cells in regulating response to therapy.
Salary will be determined based on qualifications and experience.
