Research Officer [Tumor Endothelial Biology and Cancer Vascular Dysfunction (HWJ Lab)], IMCB

Job Overview

We are seeking a motivated Research Officer to support an NMRC-funded research project investigating the molecular mechanisms regulating tumor vascular dysfunction in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with a focus on endothelial signaling pathways.

The successful candidate will provide technical and experimental support in molecular, cellular, and functional studies using in vitro and in vivo model systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform mammalian cell culture, including endothelial and cancer cell lines
• Conduct molecular biology experiments such as gene knockdown, PCR, Western blotting, and immunostaining
• Support functional assays including angiogenesis and co-culture experiments
• Assist with microscopy sample preparation and imaging experiments
• Provide technical support for in vivo tumor model experiments
• Maintain accurate experimental records and assist with laboratory operations
• Support data organization and preparation of experimental results

Requirements

• Bachelors or Masters in Life Sciences, Biomedical Sciences, Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, Cancer Biology, or related field
• Experience in mammalian cell culture and basic molecular biology techniques
• Strong technical skills, attention to detail, and organizational ability
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a research team

Experience in endothelial biology, cancer biology, imaging, or animal models will be advantageous.
