A postdoctoral position is available in the Cancer Molecular Pathology section headed by Frederic G. Barr, MD PhD, in the Laboratory of Pathology, Center for Cancer Research, National Cancer Institute, Bethesda, MD. This research laboratory uses a multidisciplinary approach involving genomics and bioinformatics along with cell culture and animal models to study recurrent genetic and epigenetic alterations in cancer. By focusing on specific cancer types, such as the rhabdomyosarcoma family of myogenic soft tissue cancers, this research laboratory is investigating the molecular basis and biological consequences of chromosomal translocations, amplification events, and methylation changes in these cancers. In addition, the section works closely with clinicians to investigate the utility of these recurrent changes as biomarkers for diagnosis and management.
