About this position
The Endocrine Oncology Lab at Stanford University is seeking a postdoctoral scholar to contribute to ambitious, collaborative translational research with potential relevance to patient care. The lab values curiosity, rigor, creativity, persistence, self-motivation, and careful experimental reasoning.
Research focuses on the biology and treatment of endocrine cancers. One major area investigates the molecular pathways that govern endocrine cancer initiation and progression, including characterization of altered genes and pathways through in vitro and in vivo models. A second area centers on discovering therapeutic targets and developing or evaluating novel anticancer agents for endocrine cancers.
The postdoctoral scholar will work on mechanistic and translational cancer biology projects in a collaborative research environment, while developing independent research toward publication. The role also involves effective scientific communication and contributing to the lab community by mentoring and supporting other members.
The position is based in Stanford, California, within Stanford University’s General Surgery and Endocrine Oncology research setting.
