Job Description

One post-doctoral fellowship position in lung cancer epigenomics is available in the Watanabe laboratory at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York.

The Watanabe lab at Mount Sinai within the Department of Medicine, as well as apart of interdisciplinary Tisch Cancer Institute, studies lung cancer epigenomics using the state-of-the-art molecular biology techniques to elucidate the lineage programs of lung cancers.

The successful applicant will have obtained a doctoral degree or equivalent qualification within two years in relevant biological sciences. A solid knowledge in cell culture, molecular biology, epigenetics and cancer biology is desired. Although not required, preference is given to a candidate with experience in single-cell genomics and/or epigenomic analyses.

The ideal applicant will be a highly motivated scientist who has desire to contribute to an active and innovative research program. The successful candidates will have demonstrated the ability to work independently and creatively.(S)he should have excellent communications skills and be able to articulate clearly the scientific and technical needs, set clear goals and work within an interdisciplinary setting, communicating with other partners within the collaborations.

The position is available immediately.
