Postdoctoral Researcher – Molecular Drivers of BRCA1-Related Precancer
Over de functie
At Antoni van Leeuwenhoek, you will map the genetic and phenotypic landscape of BRCA1-deficient precancerous cells and translate discoveries into functionally validated driver candidates. This role involves working with a novel mouse model combining Brca1 deficiency with a fluorescent reporter, introducing candidate driver genes somatically via lentiviral delivery, and performing whole-mount imaging of mammary glands at single-cell resolution. You will also investigate immune-epithelial interactions in precancerous ducts.
