Full Job Description
The research lab of Sanaz Memarzadeh, MD, PhD, focuses on understanding the molecular basis of the formation, progression and treatment of gynecologic epithelial cancers. The Gynecologic Oncology (GO) Discovery lab (godiscoverylab.com) investigates the molecular pathways in chemotherapy-resistant ovarian and aggressive endometrial tumor cells that are candidates for therapeutic intervention via small molecule inhibitors and/or immunotherapy. Knowledge gained from this translational research will then be used to design and test strategies for cancer therapeutics that will move onto clinical trials.
Under the mentorship of Dr. Memarzadeh, you will work as a full-time Staff Research Associate II and will perform a variety of molecular, cellular and genomic research techniques (flow cytometry, IHC, proteomics, transcriptomics) while working on projects related to understanding the immunologic and genetic events involved in the formation and progression of gynecologic disease. You will also work with cultured cell lines, human clinical specimens and research animals. Other responsibilities include the preparation of data and technical writing for publications and grants and a significant portion of lab support duties.
Hourly Salary Range: $ 31.23 - $ 50.24
