Job Description
Our group is expanding and we are seeking to fill two post-doctoral positions. We study the functions of human and viral non-coding RNAs in a tumorigenic virus in order to identify pathways instrumental to viral pathogenesis and potentially lead to discovery of novel antiviral and anti-tumor targets. Currently, we are studying the functional significance of a subset of circular RNAs and human genes that are differentially regulated by viral infection. Some non-coding RNA functions of interest include: regulation of infection, immune evasion, cell cycle regulation, and apoptosis. A separate project has been using various single cell and spatial transcriptomic approaches to understand viral and human gene expression in diseased tissue of patients with cancer virus malignancies.
