The posting

We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Lead Researcher to investigate the biologic basis of fusion oncoprotein-driven acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). This is a highly collaborative research project that integrates leukemia biology, molecular biology, structural biology, functional genomics, and translational science.

The successful candidate will lead and support in vitro and in vivo leukemia modeling, including molecular biology, mammalian cell culture and in vivo xenograft and engineered leukemia modeling, proteomics, structural biology and functional genomics. The project will characterize the sequence determinants of biomolecular condensate formation and hematopoietic transformation, with the ultimate goal of nominating and translating therapeutic approaches. The project part of a NCI project grant involving investigators with expertise in structural biology, brain tumor modeling, epigenomics and functional genomics. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in molecular and cell biology, including cell culture, flow cytometry, DNA/RNA isolation, western blotting and functional assays. Experience with genomics, cancer models, or in vivo studies is highly desirable. This position offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to fundamental and translational research aimed at developing improved therapies for children with leukemia.

Job Responsibilities

  • Perform molecular and cell biology experiments to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying fusion oncoprotein-driven ALL
  • Conduct molecular biology techniques, including DNA/RNA isolation, PCR-based assays, and Western blotting
  • Perform flow cytometry and functional assays to evaluate cellular phenotypes, signaling pathways, and therapeutic responses
  • Contribute to fusion oncoprotein-driven leukemia modeling using in vitro and in vivo experimental approaches
  • Apply proteomics, structural biology, and functional genomics approaches to identify and characterize potential therapeutic targets
  • Analyze, interpret, and document experimental data
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary research teams, and contribute to the development of improved therapies for children with leukemia

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
