Postdoc / Scientist position in Microphysiological Tumor Systems at the Department of Radiation Oncology, Stanford University.
A position for a postdoc scholar or research scientist position is available immediately at Stanford University, in the Department of Radiation Oncology—Physical Oncology Laboratory (PI: Dr. Guillem Pratx) to join a diverse and dynamic group of researchers. The project aims in making a lasting impact on translational cancer research by building novel physical tools and methods.
Research Areas: The lab’s interests revolve around three areas:
- Cancer imaging
- Metabolic heterogeneity
- Radiation therapy
Type of Position: Candidates can apply to this position either as postdoc scholar (with a fellowship of $60,000/year) or research scientist (post-PhD; salary commensurate with experience).
Requirements for the Position
The ideal candidate for this position is
- Passionate about cancer research
- Interested in cracking difficult problems
- Knowledgeable and curious
- Effective at communicating
- Open to work in a multidisciplinary team
- Attentive to details
- A person of integrity
Project Overview: The position will involve developing in vitro microphysiological tumor systems (“tumor-on-a-chip”) for translational cancer research. The candidate will be expected to learn and work the following techniques:
- Soft lithography and microfluidics
- 3D mammalian cell culture models
- Tissue engineering
- Radiation therapy
- Radionuclide imaging
- Biological assays
Application Procedure: To apply, please send CV and one-page cover letter to this email address: postdoc.afclthangbtdz3c8@u.box.com
