A position is available in the Centre for Molecular Oncology & Imaging, Institute of Cancer for a Postdoctoral Research Assistant. The appointee will be a member of the Oncolytic Virus and In Vivo Imaging team and will be based in the School’s state-of-the-art facility at Charterhouse Square. The post is funded by Cancer Research UK.
The Oncolytic Virus and In Vivo Imaging team is developing viruses selectively replicating in cancer cells to express imaging genes for in vivo visualisation of tumour tissue. Specifically, the research focuses on studying complementation deletions to enhance viral efficacy in cancer cells and with minimal toxicity in normal tissue. The imaging genes will be characterised for optimal type, promoter and imaging substrate. The aim is to bring this new therapeutic approach into a clinical setting as soon as possible.
Essential requirements for this post include a PhD in a relevant subject and previous experience in molecular biology and cancer. A demonstrated ability to communicate well, work within a team and maintain good laboratory records are also essential. Previous experience in the field of imaging and molecular genetics is desirable.
