<p>Position as a research specialist in the lab of the Director of the
Retina Institute, in the Vision Center at Children's Hospital. The focus
of the laboratory is Retinoblastoma, a disease affecting 300 children
in the US each year. Children's Hospital LA received around 50 of these
patients, which allows for a large impact in this field. Retinoblastoma
is an important disease to study because the Rb gene which causes the
disease is mutated in almost half of all cancers.<br><br>The position is in a smaller lab which allows for almost complete autonomy. All levels welcome to apply.</p><h4>Company Description</h4>

medical center. We provide the highest quality healthcare for children
who are the sickest and most seriously injured in our region and beyond.<br><br>Each
year, we treat more than 93,000 children who need care that is so
complex, it can only be provided by medical experts. We provide care in
more than 100 medical specialty and subspecialty areas. We are a
research hospital and believe that it is through research that we can
improve the delivery of care to the children of the future.</p><font size="2"><font face="trebuchet ms,sans-serif"><br><br></font></font></div>
