The ocular tumor research group at the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center (SYSU, Guangzhou) has three types of positions immediately available in the area of tumor biology and epigenetics. A major research focus of the group is directed towards genomic and epigenetic analyses of ocular tumors with an aim to understand the ocular disease pathogenesis mechanisms and to identify molecular targets or pathways for potential therapeutic development. The research spans over multidisciplinary fields ranging from cancer cell biology, epigenetics, bioinformatics to clinical translation in collaboration with various research units at the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center.
The three types of positions and their requirements are as follows:
1. Senior scientist (associate professor level)
Qualifications :
- PhD or MD/PhD in tumor biology, epigenetics, or other relevant areas of biomedical sciences (candidates with more than 4 years' postdoctoral experience preferred)
- Excellent communication skills in both English and Chinese (this is critical)
- Proven history of productive research activities in tumor biology
- Experience in setting up and managing multidisciplinary collaborations
- Experience in managing laboratory business as a lab manager
