Convocatorias Postdocs

The Gene Regulation Lab at the IDIBAPS Research Institute (Barcelona), an ICREA group, is seeking a postdoc to work in the area of “Regulation of Gene Expression during Normal and Malignant Hematopoiesis”.

In recent years, ZEB1 and ZEB2 have attracted great interest in molecular oncology as key regulators of cell differentiation, EMT, stemness, oncogenic transformation, and tumor invasion and metastasis. The successful candidate will work in a project investigating the role of ZEB1 and ZEB2 in the initiation and progression of hematological malignancies.

The post holder will develop a research project in one of the hottest areas in molecular oncology using a wide array of in vitro and in vivo models as well as participate in other projects currently under way in the group.
