The Chuang Lab at JAX-GM is seeking two postdoctoral scientists to join our projects in cancer genomics and evolution. These projects involve the study of tumor molecular biology and evolution through analysis of sequencing and imaging data. New team members will have unique opportunities to investigate mechanisms of cancer, to design new studies, and to develop novel artificial intelligence approaches to mine these data.  For more information see:<br>

Together with Seven Bridges Genomics, we have been awarded a National Cancer Institute grant to coordinate data sharing and analysis for the PDXNet. We are working with esteemed collaborators at institutes including MD Anderson, the Huntsman Institute at the University of Utah, Baylor College of Medicine, the Wistar Institute, and Washington University. For this project we will be analyzing hundreds of new and existing PDX samples toward the goal of developing a clinical trial based on patient-derived xenografts.
