Sherbrooke QC, Canada Universite de Sherbrooke Full time

The Université de Sherbrooke is calling for candidates for a full-time, tenure-track position of assistant professor in radiobiology in the Department of Nuclear Medicine and Radiobiology at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences .
The candidates will have a strong background in Radiation Sciences or in other closely associated fields such as Biology, Biochemistry and Immunology, with expectations to pursue preclinical and/or clinical research. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a robust, innovative research program to understand and solve the complex problems underlying the radiotherapy of cancer using external beam and/or radionuclide therapy. The overall goal is to improve treatment outcomes by increasing tumor eradication and/or reducing side effects. Examples include: studying radiation-induced metabolic reprogramming, the loss of cell cycle controls, metastatic progression, cancer cell invasion, the anti-tumor immune and inflammatory responses, the FLASH effect in radiotherapy, radiation-induced activation of cGAS-STING pathways, prevention or sparing of radiation-induced damage to healthy tissues, changes in cancer cell radiation sensitivity, radiation-induced DNA sensors (AIM2, cGAS), and the role of miRNA and ncRNA in developing radioresistance. Inclusion of imaging will be positively evaluated.
