Assistant Professor, Fels Cancer Institute for Personalized Medicine
We conduct epigenome-wide studies in colorectal cancer (CRC) and assisted reproductive technology (ART). We are interested in studying disparities (racial and age of onset) in the incidence and outcome of CRC. In the ART project, we are looking into various clinically modifiable factors that affects DNA methylation in children conceived through ART. We are also conducting longitudinal studies in the ART population.

The Ghosh laboratory at the Fels Cancer Institute for Personalized Medicine, Temple University is looking for a postdoctoral fellow. The research in the laboratory is focused on investigating epigenetic changes involved in colorectal cancer (CRC) and assisted reproductive technology (ART) through epigenome-wide (DNA methylation) studies. In CRC, the major focus is on Disparity research as CRC incidence and mortality rates are disproportionately higher in Black/African American population.
The ideal candidate will be highly motivated with experience in analyzing large datasets in addition to standard molecular biology techniques. The candidate should have the ability to work independently as well as in a team. Considerable opportunities will be available for professional development.
A PhD or equivalent degree.
Ability to perform molecular biology techniques.
Experience with data analysis. Knowledge of programming languages like Python or R is a plus.
Email a CV, cover letter that states research interest(s) and goals, and the name of at least three references to [email protected]. Qualified candidates will then be invited for a preliminary zoom interview.
