University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center Postdoctoral Position

Experimental postdoctoral positions of gene regulation in cancer immunology and cancer biology, the University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center

The laboratory of Dr. Yiwen Chen invites applications for experimental postdoctoral positions in studying the gene regulation in cancer immunology and cancer biology. By utilizing integrative computational and genomic approaches such as CRISPR/Cas9, ChIP-seq, RNA-seq and Ribosome Profiling (Ribo-seq), the focuses of our group are to decipher the mechanism of the gene regulation at transcriptional and translational level in cancer immunology and cancer biology. Our group is actively collaborating with the world-class cancer immunologists and cancer biologists at MD Anderson. The highly interdisciplinary and collaborative environment of our group provides unique career development opportunities for the postdoc trainees. The postdoc can be under the joint supervision of Dr. Yiwen Chen and another advisor (with complementary expertise) within MD Anderson for his/her postdoctoral training.

Note: the representative publications of the PI for independent and collaborative research includes Molecular and Cellular Proteomics (2009), 8(2): 273-86; Genome Biology (2011), 12(2):R11; Cancer Cell (2011), 20(1):119-31; Genome Research (2012) 22(9):1813-31; Nature Methods (2012), 9(6):609-14; Nature Structural & Molecular Biology (2013), 20(7):908-13; Nature (2014), 507(7493):448-54; Nature (2014), 508(7494):103-7.
