Postdoctoral Researcher

Postdoctoral or PhD Position in Image Processing and Digital Pathology

We invite applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher or PhD Student to join our team in investigating the tumor microenvironment, immune interactions, and digital pathology-based biomarkers. The successful candidate will contribute to ongoing projects in cancer immunology, computational pathology, and biomarker discovery. This role provides an excellent opportunity to develop expertise in high-dimensional spatial analysis, multiplex imaging, and AI-driven digital pathology while collaborating with an interdisciplinary team.

Key Responsibilities:

• Conduct research on tumor-immune interactions and spatial biomarkers in cancer.

• Apply and develop computational and statistical methods for digital pathology data analysis.

• Work with multiplex immunofluorescence imaging and machine learning tools to identify prognostic biomarkers.

• Collaborate with clinicians, pathologists, and bioinformaticians to translate findings into clinical insights.

• Contribute to grant writing, manuscript preparation, and presentations at scientific conferences.

Qualifications:

For a Postdoctoral Researcher:

• Ph.D. in Cancer Biology, Immunology, Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field.
