Postdoctoral fellows : Bellinzona, Switzerland 

Alimonti lab is interested in understanding how the tumor immune response regulates senescence activation or evasion in cancer. A major focus of the lab is the development of immunotherapeutic strategies for the clinic. We are looking for highly motivated researchers with a PhD or equivalent degree. Applicants with a strong background in senescence, signaling in cancer and tumor immunology are encouraged to apply. We offer excellent working conditions: a competitive salary, state-of-the art facilities and direct access to clinically relevant human samples from patients enrolled in international trials in prostate cancer.

Specific projects include:

1. Identification of genetic regulators of senescence with a focus on Pten-loss induced cellular senescence

2.Characterization of the role of the innate and adaptive immunity in senescent tumors

3. Generation of new mouse models for prostate cancer

Candidate requirements

•Ph.D or M.D./Ph.D. (already obtained or soon to be)

•At least one first author publication in a relevant journal

•Highly-motivated person with strong interest in research

•Experience using mouse models and/or generation of mouse model is highly desirable.
