Job description
Dr. Diana Zepeda-Orozco's Lab focuses on Onco-nephrology and use of biomarkers to identify specific kidney injury phenotypes for targeted therapeutic approaches. The laboratory uses pre-clinical models and human samples to develop mitochondrially targeted therapeutic approaches leveraging tumor and normal cells metabolism differences to protect from chemotherapy and radiation induced nephrotoxicity without protecting tumor cells. The fellow will work under the mentorship of an established CRI principal investigator or Senior Research Scientists to design experiments and develop protocols to conduct research to understand kidney toxicity associated with using anti-cancer therapies in different preclinical models.
