Postdoctoral Pathology Research Fellow - Ligon Lab

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

Job Description

A Pathology Research Fellow position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Keith Ligon in the fields of brain tumor biology and precision medicine and the Department of Pathology at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Prior experience in research (clinical or lab based) is required. The position will involve the multidisciplinary study of cancer cell biology and mechanisms of treatment resistance in adult and pediatric gliomas with a focus on the use and training in a cutting edge techniques such as spatial biology methods, patient-derived human models of cancer, AI/ML methods in digital pathology, human clinical trials, correlative tissue biomarker analysis, genomics studies, and functional precision medicine. Skills or ability to apply computational approaches and implementation of bioinformatics methods is desired. Developing independence will be fostered, and opportunities for intellectual input will also be readily available. The Ligon lab environment is highly collaborative and there will be opportunities to interact with top-tier investigators and their teams in translational and basic science collaborations at the national and international level. Fellows also have opportunity for joint appointments at the Broad Institute, Harvard Medical School, and Brigham and Women’s Hospital as projects require. Applicants will have excellent mentoring and training for academia and industry.

Design, direction, and execution of research experiments to address problems in brain tumor biology and resistance to treatment

Pathology review and annotation of features from H&E and immunostaining methods

Analysis of patient derived models (PDX and organoids) and effects of treatments on these patient models

Informatics analysis and interpretation of results from clinical trial patient samples, and in vitro or in vivo assays (genomic sequencing, RNA sequencing)

Use of spatial biology methods (e.g. Xenium, GEOMx, CyCIF, HALO AI) to examine tissue responses in models and patient samples

Communication presentation of results at meetings and manuscript preparation

Prior experience in pathology and or lab or clinical research is preferred

MD, MD/PhD, or PhD doctoral degree in biosciences, cancer biology, bioengineering, or a closely related field is required.

A minimum 2-year commitment is also requested.
