About this position

Postdoctoral Fellow in Genomic Medicine at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston, TX, United States).

This postdoctoral opening is in the Department of Genomic Medicine and focuses on how dysfunctional hematopoiesis influences tumor progression, clonal evolution, and response to therapy in mouse models and human cancers. The initial disease focus is pancreatic cancer, with expansion to other KRAS-driven malignancies, including lung adenocarcinoma.

The project sits at the interface of cancer biology, hematology, tumor microenvironment, tumor-host interactions, and translational research. The fellow will work with state-of-the-art methods such as spatial and single-cell transcriptomics, multiplexed imaging, molecular barcoding, lineage tracing, and advanced in vivo models.

Eligibility: applicants should hold a recent PhD, MD/PhD, or equivalent degree in a relevant biomedical discipline and currently reside in the United States. Experience in cancer biology, hematology, tumor microenvironment/systemic crosstalk, genetically engineered mouse models, and in vivo mouse work is especially encouraged. Strong scientific curiosity, independence, and the ability to work in a multidisciplinary environment are emphasized.

Funding: full-time postdoc salary of $64,000–$76,000 depending on postgraduate experience, plus benefits including medical, dental, paid time off, retirement, tuition benefits, and educational opportunities.

How to apply: email a cover letter, CV, and contact information for three referees to Dr. Andrea Viale at [email protected]. Use the subject line “Postdoctoral Fellow - Application - Applicant's Name.” Applications are reviewed immediately and accepted until the position is filled.
