Role OverviewThe research associate will conduct preclinical and translational research focused on the development of radiopharmaceutical imaging agents and targeted radiotherapeutics for cancer, with an emphasis on pancreatic cancer.
What You Will Do
Experimental responsibilities will include cell culture, flow cytometry, Western blotting, DNA/RNA extraction, and cell viability assays. In vivo studies will involve mouse handling and husbandry, orthotopic tumor implantation, delivery of radiopharmaceutical therapies, longitudinal tumor monitoring using multimodal imaging, tissue harvesting, and coordination with the Small Animal Multimodal Imaging and Radiopharmaceutical Applications Core at the Hillman Cancer Center.
Why It Might Be a Fit
The research associate will lead independent research projects and be responsible for experimental planning, data analysis and interpretation, and preparation of datasets, figures, and reports using appropriate software tools.
Requirements
- Ph.D. in a relevant field
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively
- Experience with cell culture, animal work, flow cytometry, in-vivo imaging, and working with radiation
