Dehm Lab

We are seeking students to assist with a project that focuses on understanding the transcriptional regulation and epigenetic mechanisms in prostate cancer development and progression. The primary role will be working under the guidance of current laboratory personnel to learn and perform various molecular biology research tasks including using CRISPR/cas9 for gene knockout, cell culture, Western blot, PCR, molecular cloning, and. We expect students to devote at least 10 hours per week during the school year with the potential for the position to evolve into a full-time position for the summer. This position is open to sophomores/juniors in a biomedical sciences degree program with interest in moving onto MD or PhD training, or to students in Medical School interested in obtaining research experience to enhance their competitiveness for future training opportunities. No prior research experience is required.
