Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Tumour Biology

The post holder should have an interest in studying the interaction between normal cholangiocytes (NCCs) and CCA cells in the tumour immune microenvironment, as well as evaluating the effects of epigenetic inhibitors on CCA growth in vitro and in vivo. The post-holder must hold a Ph.D. degree in cancer biology and immunology. You will report to Dr. Shijie Cai and work with limited supervision, utilising molecular cell biology and immunology techniques, along with prior experience in bioinformatics analysis, to successfully achieve the project's objectives. Effective workload management and meeting deadlines are essential skills. You should also be capable of working within a team and be prepared to train postgraduate students and visiting fellow researchers in research techniques for their projects. A strong track record of previous publications and excellent communication skills are required.
