Postdoc opportunity... -------- Original Message -------- Subject: postdoc ad Date: Sun, 21 Apr 2013 16:22:56 -0400 (EDT) From: Sarah Tishkoff <tishkoff(a)mail.med.upenn.edu> To: <tef(a)cgl.ucsf.edu> Dear Dr. Ferrin, I am currently advertising for postdoc position and would be very appreciative if you could send out this postdoc ad to graduate students in the bioinformatics program at UCSF. We have a FANTASTIC opportunity for creative and independent postdocs to work on some one-of-a-kind datasets that we are generating in the next year. There will definitely be opportunities for developing/applying novel methodology and for publishing high profile papers Thanks very much in advance.

We have started our very first summer internship program and need bioinformatics expertise. I thought both of you would be a great resource for recommendations. > > CytomX has applied the pro-drug concept to antibody therapeutics to address toxicities that occur when antibodies bind to target in healthy tissue. We call our protease activated antibodies “Probodies”. Our technology leverages protease activity that is present in tumor tissue and not healthy tissue to activate our Probodies. We would love to mine RNA expression databases for targets that fit certain criteria such as (1) extracellular and therefore accessible to an antibody therapeutic and (2) a protease that can cleave our Probody is also expressed. The ideal candidate would be comfortable working with RNA expression databases and able to create filters based on the needs of our Probody platform. I’ve attached a description of the intern position to this email as a Word document. > > I’m copying Luc Desnoyers on this email. Luc is the head of our cell biology group and is a great mentor. The student intern would be working with Luc and someone in the cell biology group. I can vouch that everyone in Luc’s group is nice and all of them are patient teachers. > > If you have anyone in mind that would be a good fit, please let us know. I’m confident they would have a great experience at CytomX. > > Thanks guys! > > Best, > Dan
