Shift: Weekday Day
Position Type: Full Time
Scheduled Weekly Hours: 40
Job ID: JR5992
Job Description
We are seeking a highly motivated and creative candidate for a fully supported postdoctoral fellowship to develop immune-based therapies. The research focuses on developing cell‑based immunotherapies for pediatric tumors using genetic engineering approaches to render immune cells cancer specific, improve effector function, and study their interaction with tumor cells, the tumor microenvironment, and resident immune cells. Successful applicants will have a strong publication record, excellent communication skills, and a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in molecular biology, cell biology, genetics, genomics, immunology, or a related field. The position requires a strong immunology and cell biology background, emphasis on cellular immunology, genetic manipulation of mammalian cells, and experience in generating and evaluating human or murine immune cells, gene editing, single‑cell transcriptomics, flow cytometry, and murine solid tumor models.
Eligibility
Applicants should be prospective postdocs or in the early stages of postdoctoral training (within 1–2 years of PhD conferral).
Applicants must hold a Ph.D., MD, DO, PharmD, DVM, or an equivalent degree in a relevant field at the time of appointment.
