A postdoctoral position is available at Fox Chase Cancer Center, Temple University Health System (Philadelphia, PA) for a highly-motivated individual in the field of structural biology and protein biochemistry. 

 

Fox Chase Cancer Center is a long-standing NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center with multidisciplinary research interests from basic biological sciences to drug development and clinical studies. The
institute is located in a quiet, safe, and convenient neighborhood at the outskirts of the city. It is one of the top-ranked work places for visiting scholars and postdoctoral researchers in the US.

 

The research in the lab focuses on structural and mechanistic studies of the signaling events mediated by integrins, small GTPases, as well as kinases, which have strong implications in cancer progression,
metastasis and other human diseases, and employing these new insights into inhibitor/drug discovery.  (https://www.foxchase.org/people/jinhua-wu.). The lab is equipped with top-notch crystallographic
instruments including a Mosquito robot, a Formulatrix crystal imager, and a brand-new Synergy-S X- ray home source. We also have frequent remote beamtimes at BNL and MacChess synchrotrons.  The candidate should hold a Ph.D. degree with strong experience in
X-ray crystallography, protein biochemistry, and molecular biology. Prior experiences in mammalian cell culture, flow cytometry, drug screen, and cancer biology, are desired but not required. We also offer an outstanding research environment and strong support
for the career development for our scientists.

 

If you are interested, please send a cover letter describing previous research experience and future plans, a current CV, and a list of three references to: Jinhua.wu@fccc.edu.
