POSTDOCTORAL/RESEARCH ASSOCIATE POSITION IN TUMOR VIROLOGY
Our laboratory investigates new human tumor viruses using DTS (Feng H, Shuda M, Chang Y, Moore PS. Clonal Integration of a Polyomavirus in Merkel Cell Carcinoma. Science 2008; 319(5866): 1096-100). Current studies involve programmed frameshifting, tumorigenesis and innate immune evasion for KSHV and MCV (a new human polyomavirus), as well as searches for other new human tumor viruses. The successful applicant should have experience in tumor virology, molecular biology and/or genomic analysis.
