POSTDOCTORAL/RESEARCH ASSOCIATE POSITION IN TUMOR VIROLOGY.

Our laboratory is geared towards discovering new human tumor viruses using DTS, and using these viruses as tools to uncover basic human biology. Current studies involve programmed frameshifting, tumorigenesis and innate immune evasion for KSHV and MCV (a new human polyomavirus). The successful applicant should have published experience in tumor virology, molecular biology and/or genomic analysis. Send CV and three references by fax or mail to:
