1-2 Postdoctoral Researchers In Molecular Breast Cancer Epidemiology

Karolinska Institute Stockholm

Description

Do you want to contribute to top quality medical research?

1-2 postdoctoral positions are available within the breast cancer research group that currently comprises 3 senior and 3 junior researchers as well as 6 PhD students. The research is performed in an interdisciplinary setting with strong collaboration with clinical departments and other national and international research groups.

Our research aims at acquiring a comprehensive picture of breast cancer risk and prognosis. There are a vast number of auxiliary projects ongoing. We are studying a wide range of blood-bound molecular markers using multi-omics approaches and assessing the impact of these markers on the risk of aggressive breast cancer. Other projects we are working on are genomics of interval breast cancers, the mammographic density and texture associated with breast cancer subtype, inherited variance for breast cancer risk and prognosis and identification of breast-tumor specific markers for disease progression.

Within the framework of KARMA, https: // karmastudy.org/, one of the world's best-characterized cohorts, several large studies are available with collected biological samples, questionnaires and complete information about clinical characteristics and disease progression.

See Professor Kamila Czene's group page for more information together with selected publications, https: // staff.ki.se/people/kamcze He et al., 2020, Journal of Clinical Oncology; Grassman et al., 2019, Nature Communications; Holm et.al., 2015, Journal of Clinical Oncology; He et al., 2015, Journal of Clinical Oncology.
