Postdoctoral Fellow in Computational RNA Biology and Cancer A postdoctoral fellow position is available in the Insco Laboratory in the Department of Medical Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI). We are seeking an enthusiastic and highly motivated scientist to join our team! The Insco Lab investigates how aberrant RNA processing and defects in nuclear RNA quality control contribute to cancer, with a particular focus on melanoma. We are especially interested in the dark transcriptome, including aberrant RNAs derived from repetitive genomic elements and mis-spliced transcripts. By combining zebrafish models, mechanistic studies in human melanoma cell lines, and analyses of patient-derived datasets, we seek to uncover clinically relevant RNA-driven oncogenic mechanisms and identify therapeutic vulnerabilities in high-risk melanoma. Our lab fosters a culture of curiosity, rigor, collaboration, and teamwork. Each scientist leads an independent project while benefiting from...

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is seeking a research technician to join the Lab for Antibody and Nanobody Phage Display and Discovery (LAUNCHPAD), a pre-clinical research group with the mission to streamline “discovery to translation” of antibody-based immunotherapies for cancer. The LAUNCHPAD team works closely with DFCI PIs to implement the discovery and functional screening of antibody ‘hits’ as well as the engineering of hits to generate potential therapeutic antibody-based biologics and cell therapies. The candidate should be motivated to learn and execute workflows for antibody discovery via in vitro display as well as the production, screening, and characterization of candidate antibody and CAR T cell therapies. We are deeply committed to the success of each trainee that joins our team and believe that mentorship should be intentional, thought out, and personalized for each member of the group. We dedicate time to meet trainees' individual needs for scientific growth and...
