Postdoctoral Position at

University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine

Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia

A postdoctoral position is available to

investigate cytokine receptor signaling in replication stress and DNA repair.

Dr. Tong’s laboratory studies cytokine receptor and ubiquitin signaling in hematopoietic

stem cells, bone marrow failure, and leukemia. Hematopoietic stem cells give

rise to all circulating blood cells throughout life. Maintenance of stem cell

self-renewal, proliferation and differentiation is regulated by complex

signaling pathways. Aberrant regulation leads to leukemia. Genome integrity

plays a critical role in the prevention of leukemia, ageing, and blood

development. This postdoctoral fellow position will focus on studying the

mechanisms that safeguard the genome during DNA replication and investigating

how failures in these processes impact hematopoietic stem cell function that

leads to bone marrow failure and/or leukemia. You can find our recent

publication in below website.
