About this position
The Beckman Research Institute of City of Hope is seeking a postdoctoral fellow to join Dr. Jen Jen Yeh’s laboratory in Duarte, California. The laboratory investigates the pathogenesis and pharmacogenomics of pancreatic cancer to accelerate the development of effective treatments.
The research uses molecular and genomic data together with human-in-mouse models. Previous work in the laboratory has identified four core pancreatic cancer subtypes with important biological and clinical implications. The fellow will contribute to cancer genomics and personalized medicine through computational method development, data analysis, and experimental design.
The project involves integrating high-throughput screening results, proteomic data, and next-generation sequencing data to generate and validate hypotheses with therapeutic relevance to pancreatic cancer. The research environment brings together experimental and computational approaches, with opportunities to work across cancer biology, epigenetics, transcriptomics, statistical analysis, and data-driven treatment research.
The fellow will work within a collaborative research team at City of Hope and may assist with mentoring and training pre-doctoral researchers while developing independent research and reproducible analytical methods.
