1. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The Center for Immuno-Oncology (CIO) Translational Research area at the National Cancer Institute functions as a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary translational research programmatic effort with the goal of developing novel immunotherapies and immunotherapeutic strategies for cancer. Focus is placed on the development of novel immunotherapeutics, not only as monotherapies, but more importantly, in combination with other immune-mediating modalities, and other conventional or experimental therapies, as part of an immuno-oncology programmatic effort. Within this effort are several research groups which interact closely with the clinical groups of the CIO, and with collaborators within the NCI intramural and extramural programs, and with investigators in the private sector. As Co-Director of the CIO, Dr. Jeffrey Schlom directs the Translational Research area of investigation.

2. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Our lab studies the mechanisms underlying complex behaviors in bacteria using a combination of genetics, genomics, and systems biology tools. There are two main research areas in the lab:
1) Interspecies interactions, especially between bacterial species found in chronic respiratory infections (including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia). Current research focuses on identifying the molecules and pathways that lead to novel microbial interactions, and adaptation of bacteria to foreign molecules and species.
2) Evolution of antibiotic resistance. We are interested in understanding the genetic and environmental factors that govern evolutionary trajectories upon antibiotic exposure.

3. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Single-domain antibodies (also known as ‘nanobodies’) have the ability to reach buried sites, bind poorly immunogenic antigens, reveal protein structures, and have cross-species functional activities. Additionally, nanobodies are small and easily expressed in both bacteria and mammalian cells. These features make them attractive for incorporating into therapeutics such as CAR T cells, multispecific/multifunctional antibodies, ADCs and immunotoxins. Dr. Mitchell Ho’s laboratory at the NCI has constructed large phage-displayed shark and camel nanobody libraries. Using these unique single-domain libraries, the Antibody Engineering Core collaborates with intramural labs to develop nanobodies for solving important biological problems as well as treating cancer, viral infections and other human diseases.

4. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

A postdoctoral position is available in the Bladder Cancer Section laboratory headed by Dr. Andrea B. Apolo, M.D., within the Genitourinary Malignancies Branch (GMB), Center for Cancer Research (CCR), NCI, NIH in Bethesda, Maryland. This position will be funded by an intramural Cancer Research Training/Visiting Fellowship and will be renewed on a yearly basis for a maximum of 5 years. The postdoctoral fellow will join a team working primarily on bladder cancer and especially focusing on targeted therapies, mechanisms of drug resistance, genomics, and immunotherapy. The lab is also working on identifying new markers and therapeutic targets for rare genitourinary tumors.

5. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

A postdoctoral position is available in the lab of Dr. Steven Cappell in the Laboratory of Cancer Biology and Genetics, CCR, NCI, NIH. Dr. Cappell is interested in understanding how signal transduction networks are wired to form logical circuits and how these networks function in space and time to regulate diverse aspects of human physiology. Our approach is to combine live-cell imaging of fluorescent biosensors in single cells with genetic and pharmacological perturbations to identify regulatory mechanisms of signal transduction pathways. In particular, we are interested in understanding how cells make the decision to enter the cell cycle and proliferate and how this decision is perturbed in cancer.

6. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Our research focuses on using high-dimensional tissue imaging and spatial transcriptomics to understand the complex interactions among tumor cells, immune cells, and microbes in the tumor microenvironment. We have established high-throughput imaging pipelines for data generation and are currently developing analysis tools. We are looking for postdoctoral fellows with strong computer vision backgrounds to join the tissue imaging revolution! We expect the candidates to develop their research programs in 2-3 years and leadership skills via hiring/training their postbac trainees.

8. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Our broad goal is to explore the molecular and cellular biology of thoracic cancers, namely mesothelioma and/or, thymoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma, etc. Currently, we have projects that involve (1) investigating microRNA-mRNA interactions in malignant mesothelioma, (2) novel local therapeutic delivery system(s) able to carry diverse types of payloads including nucleic acid, immunotherapeutics, targeted small molecule agents, or antibodies, (3) on the pathogenic signaling pathways relevant to tumor initiation, invasion, metastasis, and resistance, (4) constructing next-generation models of normal cells/tissues that can be used to model tumor development and processes as well as several other translational-based endeavors (e.g., developing novel tumor diagnostics and prognostics, etc.).
