About this position
The Jane Coffin Childs Memorial Fund for Medical Research supports a three-year postdoctoral fellowship in basic cancer-related research. Established in 1937, the Fund backs young scientists working on the causes and treatment of cancer, with an emphasis on the basic biology and chemistry of cell growth and development.
This award is designed to place Fellows in sponsoring laboratories where they can pursue research at an important stage in their careers. The programme has supported more than 1,600 Fellows across laboratories in North America, Europe, Japan, and Australia, reflecting a long-standing international research network in cancer science.
The scheme is run by the Jane Coffin Childs Memorial Fund for Cancer Research in the United States and is aimed at researchers pursuing fundamental questions in cancer biology and related biomedical science.
