- Interpret and summarize research findings, presenting them effectively at both internal and external meetings to support decision making.
- Stay current with advancements in high content imaging technologies and cancer biology research.
- Publish groundbreaking studies in high-impact journals and deliver presentations in prestigious conferences.
- Train and direct Research Associates in established techniques and in development of novel assays.
Who You Are
- PhD in Cancer Biology, Cancer Immunology, Molecular and Cellular Biology, or a related field.
- A minimum of 3 years post-doctoral or industry experience in the field of in vitro cancer models.
- Strong background in cancer organoid models or cancer immunology research is highly preferred.
- Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and organizational skills.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, interdisciplinary environment.
- Driven by data, innovation, and a desire to contribute to groundbreaking advancements in cancer therapy.
