Job Type/Arrangement:
  • Full Time
Description:

An NIH-funded postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Elizabeth White, Ph.D. at Tufts University School of Medicine.

Our collaborative team studies the molecular biology of human papillomaviruses (HPVs). Our goal is to understand the molecular mechanisms by which HPVs reprogram epithelial cells to enable virus persistence and replication and cause oncogenic transformation. Projects are available in each of these broad areas. We use molecular and cell biological techniques as well as computational biology, mass spectrometry, high-throughput screening approaches, and more to investigate HPV biology.

Tufts University School of Medicine provides an outstanding environment for postdoctoral training. Our colleagues include researchers in virology, cancer biology, tissue biology, immunology, and more. There are abundant opportunities for collaboration with these and other groups at Tufts and at neighboring institutions.

Education Requirement:
A doctoral degree (Ph.D. and/or M.D.) in the biological sciences and expertise in virology, cancer biology, or a related field, is required. Candidates must have a collegial attitude, strong work ethic, and excellent communication and technical skills.
