Postdoctoral Position - University of Oklahoma
The Frazer lab at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (OUHSC) in Oklahoma City seeks a 3rd post-doctoral fellow to join our group. We study lymphocyte cancers using zebrafish models and human tissue culture, with emphasis on genetic events that cause oncogenesis and therapy resistance.
An energetic, independent, and creative person would be a perfect fit for our group of 8. We like doing science, and having fun outside the lab. I am committed to mentoring junior scientists to help them achieve their career goals. Projects developed as a post-doc can be taken upon leaving the lab. Applicants should have a PhD and/or MD, and zebrafish, genetics, or molecular biology experience are a plus.
My lab belongs to the Depts. of Pediatrics, Cell Biology, and Microbiology & Immunology, and OUHSC’s Stephenson Cancer Center. We also participate in the Functional & Chemical Genomics Program at Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation. Our webpages can be found at: http://www.oumedicine.com/frazer-lab-group/frazer-lab and

OUHSC has a large campus with graduate, medical, dental, allied-health, and other schools. Our lab is well-equipped, with great core facility access. We also have a super aquatic facility manager to handle fish care, breeding, IVF, etc., so you can focus on experiments.
Oklahoma City is the 27th largest US city (~1.3 million people) and Oklahoma's capital. It is culturally & ethnically diverse, with a low cost of living, so post-docs can live well.
