About this position

The Uterine Health Research Lab at the University of British Columbia, led by Dr. Aline Talhouk, is seeking a postdoctoral fellow to develop and validate novel non-invasive biomarkers for endometrial cancer risk assessment and early detection.

The project sits at the intersection of molecular biology, translational medicine, gynecologic oncology, computational biology and clinical research. The fellow will work with vaginal and cervicovaginal specimens and contribute to multi-omics approaches involving microbiome profiling, human methylation analysis, mutation detection, deep and targeted sequencing, and proteomic technologies.

Responsibilities include coordinating biomarker-development projects across collaborating laboratories, supporting assay development and validation, contributing to study design and quality control, troubleshooting experimental and analytical workflows, and integrating findings across biological platforms. The work will support biomarker discovery, validation and translation into clinically meaningful tools for cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment decision-making.

The fellow will join a multidisciplinary research environment involving clinicians, laboratory scientists, computational researchers, trainees, external partners and patient partners. The lab is part of British Columbia’s Gynecologic Cancer Initiative and works with clinical, molecular and real-world data, including emerging approaches such as predictive modelling and artificial intelligence.

Funding details

Starting salary is commensurate with experience, ranging from $70,000 to $80,000 per year plus benefits.

What's required

A PhD in molecular biology, translational research, genomics, bioinformatics, proteomics, cancer biology, reproductive biology, or a related field is required. Applicants must have experience with at least one omics technology platform, such as next-generation sequencing, methylation analysis, microbiome profiling, proteomics or transcriptomics; a strong understanding of molecular pathology and biomarker development; excellent organizational skills and attention to detail; demonstrated ability to manage complex projects and work independently; commitment to research reproducibility and rigorous scientific practices; and excellent written communication skills, including experience assisting with grant writing, manuscripts and scientific reports. Preferred qualifications include experience with clinical specimens, integration of multiple data types in translational research, women's health, reproductive biology, gynecologic cancers or microbiome research, multidisciplinary collaboration, and eligibility for MITACS Elevate and/or CPRA postdoctoral funding.

How to apply

Apply through the Workday application portal by December 14, 2026, at 11:59 PM. Submit a cover letter of no more than two pages, a full CV including publications and contributions to scientific advancement, and the names and contact details of three professional references.
