1. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The laboratory of Dr. Marco Davila in the Department of Medicine is looking for a postdoctoral candidate to work on a research project aiming to generate novel chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells specifically targeted to antigens for the treatment of cancer. The specific research project involves the usage and identification of antigens for targeted cell therapies, CAR design, and experimental models to validate antitumor capacity. The selected individual will perform studies using in vitro models to validate and enhance the ability of CAR T cells to be used as effective cell therapy.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
2. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The laboratory of Dr. Andrew Goey is looking for a highly motivated and clinically oriented postdoctoral fellow to work on improving cancer treatments by pharmacogenetics. Research that will be carried out is highly translational and include genetic association studies, clinical trials, and in vitro drug metabolism experiments. The preferred candidate will have a track record of publications in the fields of pharmacogenetics and clinical pharmacology. Expected duties of the postdoctoral fellow include management and conduct of pharmacogenetic research projects, assistance in writing manuscripts, mentoring junior lab members, and applying for independent fellowship funding.

3. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Liu lab (https://www.roswellpark.org/xuhang-liu) at the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center is seeking highly-motivated postdoctoral fellows with interests in RNA and/or cancer biology to join our efforts in fighting cancer. We employ a multi-disciplinary approach that combines in vivo mouse models, in vitro patient-derived organoids (PDOs), classical biochemistry, cutting-edge multi-omics techniques, and advanced bioinformatic analyses to discover key post-transcriptional mechanisms that govern cancer progression and metastasis. We aim to develop innovative therapeutic strategies, in particular RNA therapeutics, to translate these mechanistic insights into the clinic.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
4. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
A postdoctoral position is available in the Atanassov Lab in the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, Buffalo, New York. We are looking for a highly motivated, self-driven postdoctoral fellow to study the role of deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) in cancer. The postdoctoral fellow will work with a dynamic team of scientists and research fellows in an outstanding research environment and utilize genetically engineered mouse models and biochemical approaches to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of how DUB functions potentiate cancer growth and develop strategies for their therapeutic targeting.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
5. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Das lab at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center is looking for a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow with a passion for research to study molecular mechanisms of breast cancer with emphasis on the crosstalk between estrogen receptors and p53 signaling. Translating lab findings to novel therapies will be a priority (see Mukhopadhyay et al. Journal of the National Cancer Institute (JNCI) 2019, Oturkar et al. Cancers 2022, Scarpetti et al. The Oncologist 2023)
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
6. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Postdoctoral positions are available in the laboratory of Dr. Dhyan Chandra, Pharmacology and Therapeutics. New postdoctoral fellows will study the role of mitochondria and heat shock proteins in prostate cancer biology and the development of therapeutic resistance in cancer.

7. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Our laboratory studies and develops adoptive T cell (CAR T cell) therapies targeting solid tumors. The postdoctoral scientist will develop genetically engineered T-cell therapies starting from the molecular cloning phase of cell therapy development, and then advancing to preclinical in vitro work and clinically relevant mouse models. A strong background in molecular biology and immunology will allow the successful applicant to be creative within the lab, enhancing T cell function and tumor targeting for optimal patient translation and high-impact publication. The postdoctoral scientist will work under the co-mentorship of Leonid Cherkassky and Renier Brentjens.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
8. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
A postdoctoral position is open for a highly motivated candidate in the laboratory of Dr. Liya Ding in the Department of Immunology at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center. The laboratory’s research focuses on investigating the interactions between cancer cells and the host immune system during cancer development and progression. Employing a multidisciplinary approach, the laboratory utilizes ex vivo co-culture systems of tumor and immune cells, syngeneic and humanized mouse models, CRISPR screening, scRNA seq, spatial biology imaging and bioinformatics to identify critical regulators that contribute to the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment during tumor progression, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
9. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Postdoctoral position is open for highly motivated candidates in the laboratory of Dr. Subhamoy Dasgupta, Department of Cell Stress Biology, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, NY – a National Cancer Institute (NCI) designated comprehensive cancer center.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
10. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
A Post-doctoral Associate position is now available in the Bio-behavioral Health and Recovery Laboratory led by Dr. Christine Sheffer at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center. The postdoctoral associate will contribute to NIH-funded research studies employing brain stimulation, behavioral economics, and neuro-economic approaches to address substance use, addiction, and health behaviors using both human laboratory and clinical trial methodologies.
