Boston MA USA, United States Partners Healthcare System Full time
Post-doctoral research fellowships in chemical biology and molecular therapeutics

Post-doctoral fellowships are available in the Ott Laboratory (ottlab.org) at the Krantz Family Center for Cancer Research, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School - Boston, MA, United States.

We are a team of dedicated and enthusiastic scientists using the disciplines of chemical biology, discovery chemistry, and functional genetics to discover new gene control therapeutics in cancer. We foster a rigorous, exciting, supportive environment for training the next generation of cancer researchers.

Our lab is recruiting post-doctoral scholars with significant interest in using functional and chemical genetics to probe the essential gene regulatory factors in cancer. The ideal candidate(s) will have a Ph.D., M.D., or M.D./Ph.D. in molecular biology, chemical biology, pharmacology, genetics, or related discipline. Familiarity with computational tools useful for genomics and epigenomics research is desirable. Available projects in the lab include understanding mechanisms of cancer cell dependency on lineage-restricted gene regulatory factors and associated epigenetic machinery, high-throughput assay design and screening for novel chemical probes, functional genetic screening with gene and epigenome editing technologies to identify new therapeutic targets, and genome-wide chromatin structure analysis to understand gene regulatory malfunction in cancers.

These positions require a high level of self-motivation, excellent communication skills, and the ability to work diligently and synergistically with others. Successful applicants will have expertise in experimental design and execution, maintain high standards of laboratory safety, and have the intellectual curiosity required to lead multidisciplinary projects. Example publications for further information on our current work: Vannam et al, Cell Chemical Biology 2021; Ott et al, Cancer Cell 2018; Shortt, Ott, Bradner et al, Nature Reviews Cancer 2017.
