About this position
The Taylor Laboratory at the University of Miami is seeking a self-motivated postdoctoral researcher to study the molecular mechanisms that drive hematologic malignancies and to develop strategies that may overcome therapeutic resistance. The project sits at the intersection of hematology and cancer biology and focuses on leukemia and myeloid neoplasms, with an emphasis on translating mechanistic discoveries into new therapeutic approaches.
Research in the lab is multidisciplinary and combines molecular biology, genetics, genomics, pharmacology, and in vivo models. The postdoctoral associate will investigate disease mechanisms using a broad experimental toolkit that may include CRISPR-based genetic screening and gene editing, functional genomics, single-cell technologies, drug sensitivity and resistance studies, primary patient samples, and mouse models of leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes.
The role is designed for an independent researcher who can develop and execute rigorous studies, interpret results, troubleshoot technical challenges, and help shape new research directions in the laboratory. The successful candidate will contribute to the broader research program through publications, presentations, and collaboration with other lab members and associated groups.
The position is based in the University of Miami’s research environment, within a major academic medical center that integrates research, medical education, and patient care.
