Post-doctoral Fellow
UT Southwestern Medical Center
Postdoctoral Fellowship in Metastatic Dormancy and Recurrence
Postdoctoral positions are available in the laboratory of Dr. Srinivas Malladi, Ph.D., Department of Pathology at UT Southwestern Medical Center to study metastatic dormancy and recurrences in breast, lung and renal Adenocarcinomas. Malladi lab is focused on developing improved diagnostic and therapeutic modalities for treating residual disease and metastasis. We employ molecular, biochemical, immunologic, genomic, imaging and computational based techniques to understand the biology of latent metastasis in cancers using mouse models, xenografts and patient samples.

Post doc and PhD positions
University of Manchester
How do tissues connect?
We are recruiting to this exciting research project - which will be led by Rachel Lennon at the University of Manchester, UK and David Sherwood at Duke University, USA.
Basement membranes are thin, flexible, protein-scaffolds that surround and usually separate tissues. However, there are instances where basement membrane linkage enable connections between tissues. How these connections are constructed and their significance have so far remained elusive to scientists due to a lack of suitable experimental tools.
A break through in this came from work at Duke University with the discovery of basement membrane connections in C.elegans, a tiny round-worm that shares many similarities with humans at the molecular level. Through innovative techniques such as genetic manipulation and endogenous protein tagging, the team discovered an adhesion complex in C.elegans that connects tissues through basement membranes in the uterus and is essential for maintaining reproductive organ integrity. Importantly, the same adhesion complex also exists in multiple human tissues such as kidney filtration capillaries, the blood-brain barrier, lung alveoli, the cochlea and eye.
Funding from an 8-year Wellcome Trust Discovery Award will allow the teams to use complementary approaches to explore the structure and mechanisms of this newly identified adhesion system through a platform of animal and cell systems. This research has great potential to transform our understanding of how basement membrane linkages help tissues to function and how this is disrupted through disease. In turn these discoveries will inform new approaches for protecting and repairing tissue connections, ultimately leading to improved human health.

post doc
Stanford
NIH-sponsored post-doctoral position is available to study basic mechanisms of liver fibrosis using animal models of obesity/non-alcoholic and alcoholic steatohepatitis with a special focus on liver cancer and matrix biology, ECM analyses, collagen architecture, mechanosignaling. The project will have translational components. Expertise in liver disease models, bioinformatics or immunology is a plus. The post-doctoral fellow will be expected to apply for internal and/or extramural funding, and to attend conferences to build their national/international reputation.
