Overall Description of Responsibility or Nature of Work
This position reports directly to Dr. Antonio Jimeno, Department of Medicine and is responsible for performing the research summarized below. This position may supervise the work of graduate students and technicians.
This position is for a PhD post-doctoral researcher at the junior level, which will provide a mechanism for the hired individual to transition into a successful independent researcher in the field of head and neck cancer biology and immunology. The research focus of the laboratory is to study head and neck cancer, generate novel in vitro and humanized animal models for in vivo immunology studies and immuno-oncology drug development, characterize tumor-stroma interactions. One project focuses on studying PD-1 interaction with its ligands and investigate how this process can be prevented or reversed while another project focuses on studying new fusion events and therapies that may target them in both squamous and salivary gland head and neck cancers. The proposed training will be conducted at University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. Highly motivated applicants who are eligible for NIH training grants are preferred.
We aim to improve our knowledge of head and neck cancer biological and immune evasion mechanisms, providing an intensive training, and ultimately provide for transition into a successful independent investigator in academia or industry. All of the duties listed below are to achieve this goal in specific categories.
