Postdoctoral Research Fellow - Freed-Pastor Lab

The Freed-Pastor Laboratory at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School invites applications for a motivated postdoctoral research fellow to study how pancreatic cancer avoids immune eradication. The research utilizes advanced techniques such as immunopeptidomics, single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, CRISPR, and T-cell engineering, combined with in vivo models and patient-derived biospecimens. The successful candidate will lead independent research projects, generate innovative approaches in tumor immunology, and contribute to mentoring junior lab members. This appointment provides an opportunity to drive impactful discoveries in cancer research within a collaborative, world-class medical environment.

• Lead independent research projects focused on tumor immunology and pancreatic cancer immune evasion
• Design and execute experiments utilizing immunopeptidomics, single-cell transcriptomics, and CRISPR technologies
• Analyze complex biological datasets and track experimental deliverables and progress
• Contribute to the development of innovative therapeutic approaches for cancer treatment
• Supervise, train, and mentor junior laboratory staff and students as needed
