Postdoctoral Fellow - Cleveland, United States - Cleveland Clinic
Description
Highly motivated individuals with a PhD or MD/PhD in relevant area are encouraged to apply.This training position, under the direct supervision of a Cleveland Clinic Principal Investigator will provide practical training and experience in a research setting.
This position will be located at the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health in Las Vegas, Nevada.The successful applicant will be able to demonstrate a commitment to research, a collaborative work ethic and strong communication skills, both written and verbal.
This program is expected to be completed within 5 years.
LINE-1 retrotransposons and endogenous retroviruses comprise a large portion of the human genome, and their upregulation can lead to induction of innate immune signaling pathways.
Our objective is to understand how genome organizing proteins regulate this signaling, with the ultimate goal of identifying new pathways that can be targeted to promote cancer cell death and/or prevent autoinflammatory disease pathogenesis.
Our lab is R01 funded, we have been very successful in obtaining federal and private, independent funding for postdocs, and we are excited to add passionate, motivated and creative scientists to our group.
