Candidate must have expertise in high throughput analysis of model systems, including the use of organoids, PDXs and genetically engineered mouse models, and a working knowledge of cancer immunology. Job expectations include knowledge and experience in determining suitable technical methods and performing procedures with professional judgment and ability to make preliminary interpretation of results and determine consistency with expected results, assemble, organize data, and assist in interpretation of results and prepare data for scientific presentation. Experience in animal modeling of cancer and in vivo therapeutics studies is required. Candidates with excellent communications skills, time management, organization skills and willingness to work a flexible schedule are desirable. MiOTO plans to employ genomic, proteomic, and bioinformatics approaches on clinical biospecimens to identify novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets. The mission of this lab will be to facilitate the discovery, validation, and implementation of candidate target genes/proteins in disease diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy. The lab plans to employ a multi-disciplinary approach, engaging talent from diverse disciplines ranging from medicine, pathology, bioinformatics, biostatistics, engineering, cytogenetics, and molecular therapeutics. This position will focus on understanding mechanisms of drug resistance (kinome and immune checkpoints) using genome-wide screens and single cell analysis techniques (scRNAseq and CyTOF).
