  • Responsibilities

    _Sanford Burnham Prebys is a preeminent, independent biomedical research institute dedicated to understanding human biology and disease, and advancing scientific discoveries to profoundly impact human health. _

    The D'Angelo laboratory has a POSTDOCTORAL ASSOCIATE position available in the areas of immune regulation, skeletal muscle and cancer.

    The main focus of the D'Angelo's laboratory is to study the role of Nuclear Pore Complexes, the multi-protein channels that connect the nucleus with the cytoplasm. Using a combination of cell biology, imaging and animals models the lab seeks to understand how nuclear pores regulate the physiology of different tissues and to establish how alterations in the function of these structures contribute to cellular malfunction and disease. The D’Angelo laboratory also has a strong emphasis in the translation of basic discoveries into clinical applications.

    The Postdoc Associate will focus on increasing our understanding of the regulation of tissue homeostasis by nuclear pore complexes and other components of the nuclear transport machinery. The successful candidate will be part of a highly collaborative research team and will have the opportunity to work with advanced techniques in molecular and cellular biology, genetics, imaging, and models of disease. The candidate is expected to play a key role in dissecting the mechanisms of function of components of the nuclear transport system and in establishing their potential therapeutic implications for muscle disease and cancer. Some studies may involve the identification of novel drug targets, the development of high throughput screening assays and small molecule screening campaigns.

    TO APPLY: Interested candidates should apply online to the SBP career site by submitting one PDF document with a cover letter, CV, references and list of any publications or accomplishments.
