Summary
The recently launched Parolia Laboratory at the Rogel Cancer Center is looking for an energetic, highly motivated individual to join our cancer biology and therapeutic team as a post-doctoral fellow. Candidates who enjoy a fast-paced lab environment focused on basic science and translational chromatin/epigenetic cancer research are encouraged to apply.
This position is ideal for a recent (or soon to be) PhD graduate who is interested in strengthening their experimental, analytical, and publishing skills before transitioning to independence within academia or bio-pharma industry. Transferring these skills to future scientists is central to the Parolia Lab?s mission (see below for details). The candidate will work as part of a small research team (comprising 2 to 3 individuals) to functionally interrogate epigenetic and chromatin regulatory proteins that activate key cancer-fueling pathways in hormone-driven (i.e., prostate and breast) cancers. They will also assess druggability of these genes using novel inhibitory/degrader drugs in preclinical models.
The individual should be familiar with routine molecular biology techniques and have an educational background in biomedical sciences or related subjects. The candidate will work under direct supervision of the Principal Investigator Dr. Abhijit Parolia?an Assistant Professor in Pathology & Urology in the Michigan medical school. The candidate will be provided thorough training in all tasks required as part of the job and will be involved in collaborative and intellectually engaging translational research.

About Michigan
Michigan consists of two peninsulas that lie between 82°30' to about 90°30' west longitude, and are separated by the Straits of Mackinac. The 45th parallel north runs through the state—marked by highway signs and the Polar-Equator Trail—along a line including Mission Point Light near Traverse City, the towns of Gaylord and Alpena in the Lower Peninsula and Menominee in the Upper Peninsula. With the exception of two small areas that are drained by the Mississippi River by way of the Wisconsin River in the Upper Peninsula and by way of the Kankakee-Illinois River in the Lower Peninsula, Michigan...
