Post Doctoral Fellow in Interventional Oncology, Drug and Device Combinations at Clinical Center, Bethesda, MD

Clinical Center, Bethesda, MD and surrounding area

POST: Post Doctoral Fellow(Interventional Oncology, Drug and Device Combinations)

The Center for Interventional Oncology (CC & NCI) & the Interventional Radiology Research Laboratory in the Radiology & Imaging Sciences Department of the Clinical Center has postdoctoral fellowship openings for qualified candidates interested in multidisciplinary translational research as part of a team of MD's, PhD's, and MD/PhD's in interventional oncology. Our research group focuses on three areas of interest: 1) Novel drug and device combinations, 2) Multi-modality image fusion and technologies for image guided therapies, such as image guided robotics or electromagnetic navigation, and 3) Novel tumor ablation and interventional devices. Targeted minimally invasive therapies using image guidance are essential tools for closing the gap between diagnosis and therapy. Integration of these targeted therapies into the clinic is a main focus of our translational research center.

Some examples of postdoctoral research projects include: 1) Combining temperature sensitive liposomes and MR-guided high intensity focus ultrasound (MR-HIFU) for the treatment of solid tumors, 2) Combining MR-HIFU and radiation therapy for the treatment of solid tumors, 3) Investigating tumor microenvironment changes following transarterial chemoembolization with drug eluting beads (DEB-TACE) 4) Developing imaging methods for targeted drug delivery systems, 5) Targeted & regional delivery of therapeutics using imaging guidance (DEB-TACE & thrombolysis), and 6) Combining ablative techniques (RFA or HIFU) with immunotherapy of solid tumors.

REQUIREMENTS:

Applicants should hold the PhD, MD or MD/PhD degree. Preferred candidates are those with backgrounds in cancer therapy, drug delivery, imaging or image-guidance, engineering, cell biology, and/or medicine and an interest in interventional oncology.

TO APPLY:

Interested applicants should e-mail a CV, a cover letter outlining their research interest and three references to:
