Masters, PhD and Postdoctoral Fellows Positions, Laboratory of Cytokine Biology, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel

/ March 8, 2011 Leave a Comment

Major scientific projects of the laboratory include:

1). The role of inflammation in the malignant process (carcinogenesis, tumor invasion and metastasis, tumor angiogenesis and interactions of the tumor with the host’s immune system).
2). Interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor and Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling in sterile inflammation and angiogenesis in the malignant process
3). Mechanisms and signaling pathways of novel intracellular non-secretable isoforms of the cytokine IL-1a.
4). Intervention in IL-1 expression in anti-tumor therapeutic approaches.

Techniques used in the laboratory include tissue culture and in vitro

work, molecular biology techniques and in vivo work. These are applied to cutting-edge issues in cytokine and tumor immunobiology, stem cell biology and angiogenesis. Excellent teamwork and atmosphere.
