Job description

Research Focus: The Wnt Signal Transduction Pathway in Development and Cancer

The Ahmed Lab is hiring a Research Assistant I to join us in the Department of Molecular and Systems Biology in the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH. The ideal candidate will be interested in cell-cell signaling in animal development and cancer. In this position, you will work independently and assist lab members. Our lab’s research focus is on the Wnt signal transduction pathway in development and cancer. In all animals, Wnt signaling directs embryonic development and regulates stem cells in adult tissues. Deregulation of Wnt signaling underlies the development of nearly all human colon cancers. We identify and investigate the function of novel Wnt pathway components to better understand this essential signaling pathway and to identify potential therapeutic targets for Wnt-driven diseases. We perform these studies in a fruit fly Drosophila model, and in collaboration, translate our findings to human cancer models. The successful candidate will be expected to become proficient in our experimental approaches: genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, and confocal microscopy. This is a multiple year, full-time position. Anticipated start date: June 15, 2023. This is a multiple year, full-time position.
