Acad Prof and Admin
This position is located on-site in Austin, MN. The Hoeppner lab uses cellular function studies, biochemistry, molecular assays, mouse and zebrafish models, and immunostaining of human specimens to study the molecular basis of human disease to ultimately discover new strategies to improve people’s health, including research that may lead to new ways to combat cancer, cardiovascular disease, and lung injury.
This individual will study the molecular and cellular mechanisms that lung cancer cells use to develop resistance to molecular targeted therapies, such as EGFR inhibitors (Alam…Hoeppner, Oncogene, 2021). Using this new knowledge, we aim to develop innovative approaches to prevent, predict, diagnose, and treat lung cancer. Opportunities also exist in the lab investigating the molecular regulation of vascular permeability, a process that plays a role in the pathology of cancer, stroke, cardiovascular disease, retinal conditions, and COVID-19-associated pulmonary edema, sepsis, and acute lung injury (Wang…Hoeppner, Dis Model Mech, 2021).
