The Marcus laboratory (marcuslab.com) at the NCI-Designated Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University is searching for an applicant with expertise in cell biology. Our laboratory developed a cell biology approach to extract genomic information from rare cancer cells using fluorescence imaging. We apply this technique to study cancer metastasis and tumor heterogeneity (see https://youtu.be/wGImLZuWVl4). This project is NIH funded and we are searching for a post-doctoral fellow with cell biology experience (does not necessarily have to be in the cancer or the cancer metastasis field). The applicant must have strong writing skills with the ability to communicate and lead a project. The Emory imaging facility is co-led by Dr. Marcus and has over 17 microscopes including multiple super-resolution microscopes, multiphoton imaging, live cell confocal, and a new lattice light sheet microscope is on the way (see ici.emory.edu).

Our goal in the lab (currently 9 trainees and scientists) is to train the post-doctoral fellow for success by providing the leadership, writing, and experimental skills necessary to excel in a scientific career. The Marcus lab has had a strong track-record of success in pre-doctoral and post-doctoral F31 and F32 training grants and would expect the applicant to apply for a training grant as the project develops. The Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University is located in Atlanta, GA and is the only NCI-designated Cancer Center in Georgia. Atlanta is a major city in the Southeast US with an excellent cost of living. Winship offers numerous scientific research cores including imaging, genomics, biostatistics, and proteomics.
