4. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The highly collaborative and interdisciplinary P3MB research lab seeks to identify and understand the interrelated clinical, ethical, and policy implications of applying precision medicine to the brain and to translate these discoveries into practice. A particular focus is the movement of gene and biomarker tests from research into practice, including testing remote, video, or telephonic methods of disclosure; the role of neural correlates of consciousness as biomarkers of disease; establishing the value of a “preclinical therapy” and translating that into clinical practice; and advancing the concept of supported decision-making across the trajectory of cognitive decline.
Project methodologies are qualitative and quantitative data sources and conceptual work.

6. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Our research is dedicated to unraveling the contribution of recurrent genomic alterations, both in protein-coding and non-coding regions, to tumorigenesis. Our primary focus is on identifying therapeutic targets and developing combination strategies for the treatment of cancer. To achieve these goals, we have developed a novel computational approach that integrates large-scale genomic, functionomic, and pharmacologic profiles. This innovative methodology has led to the creation of the Functional Cancer Genome data portal (FCG, http://fcgportal.org/home/), which serves as a comprehensive resource for functionally annotating cancer genomes. The newly funded projects will build upon the novel discoveries generated by the FCG project and will involve in-depth molecular characterization of new epigenetic and immuno-oncology drivers in cancer.
