Postdoctoral Fellow – Don Gibbons Lab – Thoracic H&N Med Onc
FACULTY MENTOR Don Gibbons, MD, PhD The Gibbons lab in the Department of Thoracic/Head and Neck Medical Oncology, MD Anderson Cancer Center, seeks to fill multiple postdoctoral research positions. Our research focuses on the mechanisms by which lung cancer evades immune system surveillance and becomes invasive/metastatic. We investigate several complementary areas, including:1) the role of the tumor cells in reprogramming the tumor immune microenvironment,2) tumor cell-extracellular matrix interactions, and3) tumor intrinsic changes that facilitate tumor invasion and distant metastasis. LEARNING …

Postdoctoral Fellow – Jonathan Kurie Laboratory
FACULTY MENTORJonathan Kurie, MD The Kurie Laboratory in the Department of Thoracic/Head and Neck Medical Oncology, MD Anderson Cancer Center, seeks to ll multiple postdoctoral positions. Our research focuses on the molecular mechanisms by which lung cancer cells generate a pro-metastatic tumor microenvironment, with three complementary areas of investigation: (1) a tumor cell-derived collagen modifying enzyme called lysyl hydroxylase 2 (LH2) that functions as a nodal regulator of brosis and immunosuppression; (2) Golgi-directed secretory processes driven by oncogene-induced transcriptional programs; …
