Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

Boston, MA

Full Time

The Freed-Pastor Laboratory at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School is seeking a highly motivated, creative, and collaborative postdoctoral research fellow to join the team. The Freed-Pastor lab investigates how pancreatic cancer escapes immune eradication to guide novel therapies for pancreatic cancer patients. The lab utilizes cutting edge technologies (single-cell transcriptomics, spatial transcriptomics, CRISPR engineering) paired with in vivo animal model systems and human patient-derived biospecimen. The candidate should have a strong background in immunology, cancer biology, molecular biology, and/or computational biology. Experience with mouse models, single-cell transcriptomics, multiplexed imaging, and/or spatial transcriptomics are preferred (but not required).

Responsibilities

Lead independent research projects.

Report progress and track deliverables.

Develop innovative approaches to advance the field of tumor immunology and pancreatic cancer treatment.

Help to train, supervise, and mentor staff as needed.

Qualifications

Minimum qualifications include:

Ph.D., M.D., M.D./Ph.D., or doctoral equivalent in a relevant field (biology, immunology, cancer biology, or equivalent).

Demonstrated scientific contributions to the field.

Proven ability to solve challenging technical problems.

Clarity of thought in written and oral communication skills.
