About the research group
Unit of Nutrition and Cancer
The Unit of Nutrition and Cancer (UNAC) comprises a multidisciplinary team of epidemiologists, nutritionists, biologists and statisticians. It focuses primarily on aetiological research into the relationship between nutrition and cancer. This includes diet and dietary patterns, body composition and physical activity as possible determinants of cancer, as well as genetic susceptibility in human carcinogenesis. UNAC also researches the role of nutritional factors in the prognosis of cancer patients and survivors. To achieve this, it combines traditional epidemiological approaches with more innovative tools including exposure and susceptibility biomarkers.
About the role
We are looking for a motivated person who wants to join in our “HDL functionality, Phenolic compounds, and Breast cancer” research line. The candidate will work in investigating the associations between HDL function and breast cancer, as well as the associations between phenolic compounds and breast cancer in the EPIC cohort. The future postdoctoral researcher should have interest in nutrition, biochemistry, epidemiology, and biostatistics. The future postdoctoral researcher will apply to research grants (Juan de la Cierva, Sara Borrell, AECC, PERIS…) to obtain the contract.
