The Division of Human Biology at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center is soliciting applications to fill two junior faculty positions. We are especially interested in candidates using genomic, proteomic, computational and/or other innovative molecular approaches in research programs with direct relevance to the etiology, prevention, detection, and/or treatment of solid tumors. The ideal candidate will be at the starting assistant-member level. These positions are offered jointly with either the Clinical Research Division or Public Health Sciences Division at FHCRC, and opportunities exist for affiliate appointment at the University of Washington.
The Human Biology Division fosters interdisciplinary, collaborative research at the interfaces of basic, clinical, and population sciences in order to further our understanding of human biology, cancer, and other complex human diseases. The Division occupies state-of-the-art research laboratories on a new lakeside campus. The Center offers outstanding shared resources, including genomics, imaging, and proteomics facilities. The Center has active training programs for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows and offers exceptional opportunities for scientific interactions with other investigators in the Seattle area.
