Post-doc position: Histology-based modeling of cancer treatment,
Integrated Mathematical Oncology, Moffitt Cancer Center, US
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral researcher position in our computational lab with a focus on modeling tumor response to various anticancer treatments integrated with biomedical imaging. The successful candidate will work under the mentorship of Dr. Kasia Rejniak (http://labpages.moffitt.org/rejniakk ) on interdisciplinary projects conducted in collaboration with local experimentalists based at Moffitt and/or USF.
These projects will couple computational modeling based on biophysical principles with extensive use of biomedical images (that include fluorescent microscopy images and immunohistochemical pathology images) for model calibration and validation. Success of these projects will lead to a better understanding of how the tumor microenvironment influences anticancer drugs and imaging agents penetration through the tumor tissue, and how to predict patients response to anticancer therapies based on tumor biopsies.
To be considered, a PhD in applied mathematics, scientific computing, computer science or similar computational field is required. Priority will be given to candidates with research experience in biology-based computational modeling and a proven interest in using biomedical imaging data for quantitative comparison with in-silico results.
The ideal candidate will have a history of demonstrated creativity, be highly motivated to work as a team member within an interdisciplinary group of researchers, have good communication skills and experience in writing publications for peer-reviewed scientific journals. The candidate must have strong programing skills (C/C++/Java/Fortran/Matlab) and ability to visualize, analyze and compare numerical and experimental data.
The offered position is within the Integrated Mathematical Oncology (IMO) Department of the Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute. IMO integrates mathematicians, computer scientist, and physicists, together with imaging specialists as well as clinical and experimental oncologists to develop novel approaches for understanding, treatment and prevention of cancer.
This position is offered for a one year, and can be renewed for additional years upon candidate performance.
Interested applicants can apply online at www.moffitt.org/careers (req#15359) and should send an application letter, detailed CV with recent publications,a statement of research interests and 3 (three) letters of recommendation directly to Kasia.Rejniak@moffitt.org . |
