The Bladder Cancer Section laboratory of the NCI Genitourinary Malignancies Branch, headed by Dr. Andrea B. Apolo, is now seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow.
We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow, with strong expertise in bioinformatics, cancer genomics, and interest or experience in wet lab research, to join our multidisciplinary team researching bladder cancer and rare genitourinary malignancies. Our lab combines integrative multi-omics analyses with experimental validation to study targeted therapies, mechanisms of drug resistance, tumor evolution, and immunotherapy response.
Successful candidates will lead projects involving the analysis of next-generation sequencing data (RNA-seq, whole exome/genome sequencing, single-cell sequencing), the integration of clinical and molecular datasets, and the identification of biomarkers and therapeutic targets. In parallel, prospective fellows will also participate in wet lab experiments, including molecular biology, cell culture, and functional validation studies, to enable a combined computational and experimental approach.
The Genitourinary Malignancies Branch is part of Center for Cancer Research, the National Cancer Institute’s largest intramural program. The GMB is a vibrant, multidisciplinary research community featuring innovative, high-impact bench-to-bedside research and close collaboration between physicians and scientists with a primary focus on genitourinary cancers.
This position will be renewed on a yearly basis for a maximum of 5 years.
