Description & Requirement The USA Mitchell Cancer Institute (USA-MCI), a new flagship facility developed at the University of South Alabama, is seeking postdoctoral scholars with an interest and dedication to translational research and a focus on the role of miRNAs in cancer biology, diagnosis, and therapy.
The USA-MCI is a sleek, modern research and multidisciplinary clinical oncology facility recognized for an exceptional design that facilitates collaborations between basic and clinical scientists. Faculty research interests and expertise at the USA-MCI include diagnostic and therapeutic molecular targets, molecular regulation of metastasis, cancer stem cells, and miRNA regulation of target genes in cancer. Facilities at the USA-MCI include state-of-the-art proteomics, genomics, and microscopy core labs in a recently completed 128,000 sq ft translational research facility. This is a unique opportunity for a motivated candidate to enter a fostering environment of collaborative basic and clinical cancer researchers. Candidates with a PhD and/or MD with strong hands-on experience in cell/molecular biology, signaling transduction, biochemistry, murine models of cancer, genomics, or proteomics are encouraged to apply. Bioinformatics skills are not required but would be considered a plus.
The USA-MCI is ideally located in Mobile, Alabama, a progressive, mid-sized port city with a rich cultural history, in the beautiful upper Gulf coastal region. Moderate climate, abundant outdoor recreational opportunities, low cost-of living and a college-town atmosphere all contribute to a high quality- of-life opportunity.
