[beasiswa] [INFO] UK Scholarships Fellowship in Cancer Stem Cell Research

 

Early Stage Researcher Marie Curie : University of Oxford (2)

Haematopoietic Stem Cell Laboratory
Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine
University of Oxford

Eurocancer Stemcell Training is a network gathering 9 laboratories of 6 member states at the highest level of cancer stem cell research. EuroCSC training offers the opportunity to young researchers to join an excellent training platform in this new area of Cancer Research.

An Early Stage Researcher fellowship position is available for a period of three years, tenable at Oxford University on a project entitled "Cellular origin and molecular determinants of leukemic stem cells". The position will be based in the laboratory of Professor Sten Eirik Jacobsen and funded by the European Union Research Framework Programme/Marie Curie Actions. This is part of an International Training Network whose central theme is called 'Eurocancer Stemcell Training'.

Description

This project will use mouse models to establish the cellular and molecular basis of collaboration between different classes of mutations in preleukemic and leukemic stem cells. Mutations will be targeted to different stages of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in mouse models, to investigate how different primary target cell populations impact on the cellular and molecular properties, as well as therapeutic responsiveness of leukemic stem cells.

The Fellow will work in the excellent research environment of the Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine http://www.imm.ox.ac.uk/ at Oxford. The Jacobsen lab http://www.imm.ox.ac.uk/wimm-research/haematopoietic-stem-cell-biology/sten-eirik-waelgaard-jacobsen comprises approximately 15 members, who study the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate normal white blood cell differentiation from hematopoietic stem cells, and their dysregulation in hematological malignancies.

Research Fields

Medical sciences

Career Stage
