Dear cell biology enthusiasts,

Want to tackle the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying epithelial cancers? Now its your chance! An interesting pro gradu project awaiting for a brilliant and highly motivated student! How do integrins, cellular sensors of the microenvironmental ECM, contribute to transformation and invasive behavior of epithelial cancer cells? Learn state-of-art microscopy, 3D organoid cultures, viral vectors, RNAi-KDs/CRISPR-KOs and more in a good company!

Interested? Please send a succinct motivation letter along with your CV to aki.manninen@oulu.fimailto:aki.manninen@oulu.fi

Yours sincerely, Aki and the team
