The Fox Chase Cancer Center invites applicants for a tenure-track faculty position at the level of ASSISTANT or ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR in the Blood Cell Development and Function Program.

(3) immune-based treatment strategies for malignancies;
(4) non-coding RNAs and RNA modifications in normal and malignant immune cells
(5) systems biology approaches to understanding normal and malignant immune cell function and behavior
The successful applicant will join a highly interactive group of immunologists in the outstanding basic and translational science community at Fox Chase. Applicants should have a Ph.D. or M.D. degree and an outstanding record of research productivity.
Fox Chase was among the nation’s first institutions to receive Comprehensive Cancer Center designation from the NCI in 1974, and its 119 research faculty bring in a total of $63.2 Million in research funding. The Center provides care for over 105,000 outpatient visits each year, supported by 172 clinical trials, of which 67 are investigator-initiated. Two particular highlights of the Center are the superb clinical trials pipeline that allows the rapid translation of basic science discoveries into the clinic and world-class core facilities.
