Are you a PhD developmental biologist, biochemist, molecular biologist, biomedical engineer or stem cell biologist interested in changing paradigms and outcomes for cancers of children, adolescents and young adults? The Children’s Cancer Therapy Development Institute (cc-TDI.org) offers a mentored research experience for recent PhD graduates or senior scientists in a diverse, inclusive, team-based multidisciplinary setting of biologist and engineers, nestled in a facility replete with high-end instrumentation and automation, rich in conditional genetic mouse models, just minutes from the Portland-area medical center and Intel headquarters in the Silicon Forest.
cc-TDI was recently featured in Nature, https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-01513-5. Responsibilities: You will primarily be responsible for project planning and execution of a research project of mutual choosing, and you will be given the opportunity to develop your own project within the scope of childhood cancer basic science or therapy development.
Qualifications: PhD degree in a biology or engineering field, demonstrated peer-reviewed publications as a first author — and curiosity — are prerequisite. A history of having written a funded grant is a plus. Applicants can send their CV to Dr. Charles Keller at charles@cc-tdi.org.
