Scholarship Description: One postdoctoral position is available in Natoli group to work on epigenetic control of pancreatic cancer. The objective of the project is to isolate transformed epithelial cells from primary human pancreatic adenocarcinomas and characterize their epigenome using chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to next generation sequencing. These data will be used to infer, and experimentally validate, transcriptional circuits controlling abnormal behaviors of pancreatic cancer cells. The project involves the collaboration with computational biologists entirely dedicated to this project. Competitive salary, commensurate with experience and track record, and benefits.
