The HLA Laboratory is an ASHI- and CAP-accredited laboratory that provides support for a robust solid organ transplant program including cardiac, renal and liver transplantation as well as other non-transplant applications. The ideal candidate should have an MD and board certified in Clinical Pathology or other relevant medical specialty; non-physician doctoral clinical scientists are also encouraged to apply.


How you’ll transform patient care:

  • You’ll share in providing oversight of the HLA Laboratory activities. These include selection, development and implementation of appropriate tests/technologies, and ensuring quality of services provided.
  • You will share with review and approval of test results/report, on-call duties, serve as a clinical consultant and provide guidance for current transplant regulations as needed.
  • You will work with other laboratory and hospital staff to ensure overall quality in designated areas of responsibility.
  • You’ll have ample opportunities and support for clinical, translational, and basic science research.
  • You’ll qualify for an academic appointment at Tufts University School of Medicine at a rank commensurate with experience.

Who you are:

  • Ideally possess an MD/DO degree but PhDs (or other doctoral-level clinical scientists) with relevant training, experience and interest in histocompatibility and immunogenetics will also be considered; interest in other areas of laboratory medicine is a plus.
  • If a physician, be board certified in Clinical Pathology and licensed and/or eligible to practice Medicine in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; if non-physician, be board-certified/-eligible by an HHS-approved board, preferably the American College of Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics (ACHI). Credentialing by the Portfolio Committee/Director Training Review and Credentialing of ASHI is preferred.
  • MD and/or Ph.D. candidates who wish to gain experience and training with a goal to become ASHI credentialed will be considered.
  • Qualify for a faculty appointment at Tufts University School of Medicine and participate in fellow, resident and medical student teaching.
  • A portfolio of clinical research activities and/or funded or transferable research is a plus.

Why join our team:

The Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine is accredited by the College of American Pathologists (CAP), the Association for the Advancement of Blood and Biotherapies (AABB), and the American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics (ASHI). The Clinical Laboratories perform approximately two million tests with the Blood Bank supporting close to 15,000 blood transfusions annually.
