JOB SUMMARY:

The Theodorescu Lab at Cedars-Sinai is looking to hire a postdoctoral researcher with a strong background in cancer immunology. In this project will characterizing the tumor microenvironment of bladder cancer, with emphasis on mechanisms of immune-evasion orchestrated by tumor cells while also identifying immune system agonists or antagonists that modulate tumor behavior in vivo. To dissect cancer-specific vulnerabilities, we will combine techniques of biochemistry, molecular biology, and Crispr/Cas9 technologies, together with the use of innovative mouse models we have developed. A recent example of the type of work that will be undertaken is our papers by Guin (J Natl Cancer Inst. 2014;106(5)) and Tu (SCIENCE Adv. 2019; 20;5(2)) and associates. Our final goal is to identify novel biomarkers and interventions for cancer that will improve patient outcomes.

This individual would join our exciting cancer research group. The successful candidate will be a driven, creative, team-oriented individual with a passion for helping to discover and move fundamental cancer biologic findings towards a clinical setting. We employ many different in vitro and in vivo approaches and seek individuals with a strong background in cell and molecular immunology. We welcome applications from both recent PhD or MD/PhD recipients and individuals seeking additional postdoctoral training. Strong preference will be given to individuals with an outstanding publication record from their prior graduate and/or postgraduate training and/or existing extramural funding.
