Full-time
- Postdoctoral Research Fellow will work on independent research projects in computational cancer evolution directed by the lab's Principal Investigator, Franziska Michor, PhD. ( The lab works on developing and validating computational biology and mathematical modeling strategies of tumor evolution, heterogeneity and treatment response, and eventually utilize these strategies to identify best therapeutic interventions.
- We investigate the treatment response of cancer cells and their microenvironment, develop novel computational approaches and mathematical frameworks describing the evolutionary dynamics of tumor progression and treatment response that are parameterized using the experimental systems and clinical data, and predict and validate optimum intervention strategies that will ultimately be implemented as prospective clinical trials.
- We also use bioinformatics pipelines and develop novel bioinformatics approaches to analyze data types such as single cell RNA sequencing data, spatial transcriptomics data, epigenetics data such as DNA methylation and ATAC sequencing data, and others.
- The lab is looking for a highly motivated and qualified Postdoctoral Research Fellow to investigate tumor evolution and heterogeneity using and creating bioinformatics approaches and/or mathematical models of tumor evolution and drug resistance in order to further the understanding of cancer evolution, metastasis formation, and emerging drug resistance.
- Located in Boston and the surrounding communities, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is a leader in life changing breakthroughs in cancer research and patient care.
