The long-term goal of these studies is to develop novel prevention approaches for colorectal cancer.

　　Candidates must have a PhD or MD degree in hand by start date and have demonstrated expertise in molecular biology and/or molecular genomics. Additional computational biology skills are also preferred. Successful candidates must have effective oral and written communication skills as demonstrated by peer reviewed publications and conference presentations.
