Postdoctoral Fellow to investigate the targeting of immune cells as a mechanism to
enhance immunotherapy responses in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
This funded position will involve studies of prostate cancer immunology and cancer
metabolism with an emphasis on understanding how to improve anti-tumor immunity for
metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The position will involve the use of
technologies such as multi-panel flow cytometry, in vitro and in vivo models, qRT-PCR,
metabolomics, and immunohistochemistry. Candidates should have completed a
doctorate level degree and have a strong background in cancer biology and/or
immunology preferably related to innate immunity. The successful candidate should also
have documented success in research including publications in peer-reviewed journals
on relevant topics.
Applicants should submit an application package that includes a cover letter, CV, relevant
prior publications, and contact information for three references to Dr. Jelani Zarif, at
