The World’s Most Dedicated Never Give Up
There’s a reason St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is recognized as a great place to work. Because at our world-class pediatric research hospital, every one of our professionals shares our commitment to make a difference in the lives of the children we serve. There’s a unique bond when you’re part of a team that gives their all to advance the treatments and cures of pediatric catastrophic diseases. The result is a collaborative, positive environment where everyone, regardless of their role, receives the resources, support and encouragement to advance and grow their careers and be the force behind the cures.
We are seeking a highly motivated and creative candidate for a fully supported postdoctoral fellowship to develop immune-based therapies. Specifically, the research is aimed to develop cell-based immunotherapies for pediatric tumors. Studies are focused on using genetic engineering approaches to not only render immune cells cancer specific, but also improve their effector function. Genetically modified immune cells will be studied in preclinical models with special emphasis on how adoptively transferred cells interact with tumor cells, the tumor microenvironment, and resident immune cells.
Successful applicants will have a strong publication record, excellent communication skills, and a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in molecular biology, cell biology, genetics, genomics, immunology, or a related area. To succeed in this position, you will have a strong immunology and cell biology background, with an emphasis on cellular immunology, and genetic manipulation of mammalian cells, and have experience in generating and evaluating human or murine immune cells, gene editing, single cell transcriptomics, flow cytometry, and murine solid tumor models.
Eligibility
Applicants should be prospective postdocs or in the early stages of postdoctoral training (within 1–2 years of PhD conferral).
Applicants must hold a PhD, MD, DO, PharmD, DVM, or equivalent degree in a relevant field at the time of appointment.
Applicants must be U.S. Citizens, U.S. Noncitizen Nationals, or Permanent Residents at the time of appointment.
Strong communication skills, a solid publication record, and a demonstrated commitment to research are required.
