Description
Department Overview
OHSU Knight Cancer Institute, known as one of the pioneers in personalized cancer medicine, is an international leader in research and cancer treatment.
Driven by its mission to end cancer as we know it, the institute is building upon its expertise in targeted treatments to advance the early detection of cancer when the disease is most treatable.
An exciting opportunity has been created for an experienced researcher to join Dr.Theodore Braun's laboratory as a Senior Research Assistant serving in a lab manager role at Oregon Health & Science University in Portland, OR.
The primary goal of the Braun Laboratory is to understand how changes in the epigenome influence the development of blood cancers.
We employ a variety of high sensitivity and single cell methods to understand how early oncogenic mutations alter the epigenetic landscape of developing blood cells driving progression to cancer.
We conduct this work using cell lines, mouse models and primary patient samples, enabling us to develop a comprehensive mechanistic understanding of biologic mechanisms.
We are looking to hire a Senior Research Assistant working as a lab manager to support our ongoing projects investigating the epigenetic basis of myeloid malignancies.
