Description:The laboratory of Dr. Yan Dong at Tulane University School of Medicine, YDongTulane , is seeking two postdoctoral fellows who are highly motivated and devoted to research. Research in the laboratory focuses on molecular mechanisms of prostate cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.
