Overview
About the role
An exciting opportunity to join the Ciccarelli lab () to study the drivers of cancer evolution, from its early appearance to its response to therapy. We are a multidisciplinary team combining computational and wet-lab approaches and are affiliated with the Francis Crick Institute, a pioneering biomedical research institute in London.
We are seeking an independent and highly motivated wet-lab postdoctoral fellow to lead their own projects, contribute to collaborative efforts and guide PhD students, if required. Our lab is highly collaborative and interdisciplinary and the ability to work in a team is essential. There are several projects currently ongoing in the lab and the candidate will have the opportunity to find their own niche of professional training and development.
Examples of projects from the lab include investigating the context-dependent effects of tumour suppressors during cancer evolution (Biorxiv, 2024); determining key immune factors for response to cancer immunotherapy (Gastroenterology 2021); validating patient-specific cancer drivers (Nature Comms 2019); and exploiting cancer-specific synthetic lethal vulnerabilities (Oncotarget 2017).
About You
The successful candidate will be responsible to conduct wet lab work in the field of tumour immunology, molecular and cellular biology, tissue staining and imaging. They will have a strong background in cancer biology and past experience in wet lab. They will be able to work and thrive in a multidisciplinary team where they will share and integrate their expertise with that of others with different background. This post will be based at the Francis Crick Institute
