Postdoctoral Research Associate - Cell & Molecular Biology
Core
Investigate mitochondrial biology and the BCL-2 family protein MCL-1 to understand their roles in normal hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, and cellular stress responses, and how these pathways are dysregulated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and other hematologic malignancies.
Role type
