The lab of Sanaz Memarzadeh, MD, PhD, focuses on understanding themolecular basis of the formation, progression and treatment of gynecologicepithelial cancers. The GynecologicOncology (GO) Discovery lab investigates the molecular pathways in chemotherapy-resistantovarian and aggressive endometrial tumor cells that are candidates fortherapeutic intervention via small molecule inhibitors and/orimmunotherapy. Knowledge gained fromthis translational research will then be used to design and test strategies forcancer therapeutics that will move onto clinical trials.
Dr. Memarzadeh and the GO Discovery Lab (godiscoverylab.com) areseeking a full-time Staff Research Associate II to join their team. The candidate for this position will beexpected to perform a variety of molecular, cellular and genomic researchtechniques while working on projects related to understanding the immunologicand genetic events involved in the formation and progression of gynecologicdisease.
