ICR is dedicated to solving some of the most difficult problems in aging and age-related disease, including cancer early detection and prevention.
With ICR, you'll get to:
- Contribute highly practical and readily translatable pan-cancer screening/early detection, diagnostic, prevention and therapeutic ideas
- Contribute to the development of novel personalized peptide and mRNA cancer vaccines
- Quantify and track cancer biomarkers, including CTCs, cfDNA, serum, plasma, and urine proteins, RNA, metabolites, driver-gene mutations, epigenetic modifications, etc
- Collaborate with ICR's Biomarkers Team to perform molecular and cellular cancer prevention screening assays, under a personalized medicine paradigm
Please apply if you have:
- A PhD, MD or both At least 5 years of pan-cancer research experience
- Current and in-depth knowledge of pan-cancer: screening, early detection, biomarkers, diagnostic prediction, genetics, prevention, and chemical and vaccine-therapeutics (practical and experimental)
Ideally, you'll also have:
- Expert knowledge and understanding of worldwide pan-cancer drug development pipelines
- Experience with cell-based assays, immunofluorescent microscopy, qPCR, flow cytometry, single-cell genomics, RNAseq, cell culture, organoid culture, Illumina NextSeq 550, DNA methylation sequencing, ddPCR, Luminex, clinical chemistry instrumentation, Kryptor, Access 2, robotic liquid handling (e.g. Tecan), Vortex, and DepArray
- Knowledge and experience in cutting-edge paradigms of immuno-oncology including cell therapies, CAR-T, peptide vaccines, RNA vaccines, dendritic cell vaccines, neo-antigen vaccines, clinical vaccine safety, T cell and antibody analysis of vaccine-induced immunogenicity, etc
- Experience with protein, RNA, and small metabolite cancer biomarker analysis
And you'll need:
- An easygoing, friendly personality
- The ability to work in the United States without sponsorship
