Offer Description

We are seeking a candidate to join our team for the project titled "Mechanism of control of apoptosis by prohibitin in cancer cells" and contribute to this research. The selected candidate will play a pivotal role in unravelling the intricate framework of this project. Specifically, the candidate will focus on investigating the mechanism by which the prohibitin-binding compound fluorizoline activates the integrated stress response (ISR)-related kinase HRI to induce apoptosis in cancer cells.

The candidate will be responsible for developing and implementing various research tasks. These tasks will involve designing and executing experiments, employing specialized techniques and methodologies, analysing data, engaging in meaningful discussions, and producing well-crafted articles. Additionally, the candidate will be involved in other crucial aspects of the research project, ensuring a comprehensive and successful execution.
