Human Blood Plasma Colorectal Cancer Biomarkers
Scholarship Description
A full-time PhD scholarship is available in Chemistry & Biomolecular Sciences, at the Australian Proteome Analysis Facility (APAF) Macquarie University. This project investigates the discovery of new blood based human colorectal cancer protein biomarkers through a collaborative China:NSW cancer proteomics program recently funded by NSW government located within the Australian Proteome Analysis Facility (APAF) at Macquarie University. Discover protein profiles in plasma that are indicative of colorectal cancer (CRC) by the discovery, quantitation and validation of low abundance proteins that change during CRC using the most advanced proteomics technologies available and a new abundant protein immunodepletion method patented by Macquarie University. Laboratory experience highly advantageous. Applicants should quote 2010218 on their application. More information is available at http://www.hdr.mq.edu.au/information_about/scholarships
