RTP RESEARCH FELLOW LS PC with Dr Lucien Matteoni

The laboratory of Dr. Lucien-Matteoni https://www.mayo.edu/research/faculty/lucien-matteoni-fabrice-ph-d/bio-20516964 is seeking a postdoctoral fellow (must have Ph.D.) to join the research team. The laboratory is focused on studying the role of cell-surface proteins in the remodeling of tumor microenvironment and immunosuppression to develop novel therapeutic approaches and improve the efficacy of cancer immunotherapies and radiation therapy. The laboratory is devoted to characterizing the composition of the cancer cell surface proteome and how cancer-associated surface proteins modulate cell-cell interactions and immune response.
In this position, the selected individual would utilize in vitro co-culture systems, in vivo mouse models and human biospecimens (tissue and biofluids) in combination with genome-editing technologies, RNA sequencing, advanced proteomics (surfaceomics, proximity labeling), multiplex immunofluorescence to shed the light on the molecular and cellular mechanisms that drive immune evasion and resistance to therapy.
 

"A Research Fellow position in Life Sciences (LS) will require knowledge of either clinical-based research or laboratory-based research often obtained from a postdoctoral program.
