Description

The Center for Pediatric Cancer Systems Biology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School (UTSW) will use a systems biology approach to address fundamental questions on the metastatic cascade in Ewing sarcoma, as paradigm for pediatric cancer.

This center brings together experts in the fields of pediatric oncology and genetic model organisms (James Amatruda), pathology (Stephen Skapek), single-cell genomics (Gary Hon), quantitative live-cell imaging (Gaudenz Danuser) and systems biology (Yang Xie) to remove the technical barriers to understanding the metastatic cascade within pediatric cancers.

We are seeking applicants for an integrated and dynamic postdoctoral training program to develop new paradigms in single-cell cancer functional genomics. Specifically, we are seeking individuals with significant experience in genomics and bioinformatics, particularly statistical modeling and machine learning. We especially value motivated, creative, adventurous, and collaborative individuals. We are firmly committed to training these scientists to succeed as future independent investigators.
