investigate the signaling mechanisms underlying the development of obesity and breast cancer. The project will investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying obesity/diabetes development and breast cancer progression using a combination of biochemical and molecular approaches in cultured cells, xenograft models, and genetically engineered mice. The ideal candidate should have valid authorization to work in the United States and a strong background in molecular biology and biochemistry, with substantial experience in cell culture and signal transduction research. A solid publication record and excellent references from Ph.D. research are required. Experience with animal models is preferred, and proficiency in both spoken and written English is essential. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled. Iowa City is one of the most beautiful, safe and collegial university towns in the Midwest of the USA (3.5 hour driving distance from Chicago) that offers high living standards with relatively inexpensive cost of living, and very rich cultural life. https://youtu.be/ef3rAkmZnYI . You would be joining a vibrant community of postdoctoral scholars at the University of Iowa who are a vital part of our research community. The Graduate College provides a wide variety of resources that will help you thrive in your research efforts and further develop your professional skills. The following site details those resources, including salary and outstanding benefits, that support your training and success at Iowa. https://grad.uiowa.edu/postdoctoral-affairs/postdoc-resources .
