Join Our Lab

Postdoctoral Fellows

The Alumkal Lab is seeking accomplished and motivated postdoctoral fellows in search of a highly translational training environment in prostate cancer epigenetics and drug resistance. Projects focus on identifying mechanisms by which key chromatin modifying enzymes and chromatin readers drive transcription of pathways that promote treatment resistance with the goal of developing new, targeted treatment strategies for men with advanced prostate cancer. If you are interested in joining our team, please send a cover letter, CV, and at least three references to alumkalinfo@umich.edu.
