Overview
The Dana-Farber Cancer Institute has an exceptional opportunity for a proven leader to head the Lurie Family Imaging Center (LFIC), the pre-clinical arm of the Center for Biomedical Imaging in Oncology (CBIO). CBIO is a centralized cancer imaging research enterprise that was established as a paradigm shift for translational cancer research through the integration of pre-clinical, clinical multidisciplinary expertise, and drug/probe development.
LFIC is a state-of-the-art imaging facility that is focused on interdisciplinary in vivo translational studies and experimental cancer therapeutics. LFIC is equipped with optical imaging, 7TMRI, microPET/SPECT/CT, ultrasound, and image-guided irradiation systems. LFIC can accommodate 16,500 experimental animals, including genetically engineered, cell line xenograft, and primary xenograft mouse cancer models. Imaging equipment is co-localized with animal housing behind a bio-barrier permitting serial imaging of experimental subjects. The studies conducted at the LFIC are focused on cancer, with an emphasis on assessment of novel cancer therapeutics, multimodality imaging of cancer, molecular imaging of pharmacodynamic efficacy, development of novel probes, and target validation. To address the CBIO translational science mission, the DFCI has a dedicated research cyclotron adjacent to the LFIC facility which further enhances the capabilities and impact of CBIO, LFIC, and the radiochemistry program at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
Located in Boston and the surrounding communities, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is a leader in life changing breakthroughs in cancer research and patient care. We are united in our mission of conquering cancer, HIV/AIDS and related diseases. We strive to create an inclusive, diverse, and equitable environment where we provide compassionate and comprehensive care to patients of all backgrounds, and design programs to promote public health particularly among high-risk and underserved populations. We conduct groundbreaking research that advances treatment, we educate tomorrow's physician/researchers, and we work with amazing partners, including other Harvard Medical School-affiliated hospitals.
