Salary/Pay Rate: $80,000.00 - $95,900.00 per year Overview

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is seeking an experienced PhD-level scientist to join the antibody discovery and antibody-based therapeutics development-focused Lab for Antibody and Nanobody Phage Display and Discovery (LAUNCHPAD). A pre-clinical strategic center, LAUNCHPAD’s mission is to streamline “discovery to translation” of antibody-based immunotherapies for cancer. The role also offers the possibility to work closely with faculty in DFCI's Data Science department for ongoing computational professional development and collaboration. The LAUNCHPAD team works closely with academic partners to design experimental strategies to identify promising antibody ‘hits’ as well as engineering hits to generate potential therapeutics, e.g. bispecific and CAR T-cell immunotherapies. The candidate should be an exceptionally motivated individual with a passion for working in multidisciplinary teams to model, design, screen and engineer immunotherapy candidates and advance next-generation therapies. Located in Boston and the surrounding communities, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is a leader in life changing breakthroughs in cancer research and patient care. We are united in our mission of conquering cancer, HIV/AIDS, and related diseases. We strive to create an inclusive, diverse, and equitable environment where we provide compassionate and comprehensive care to patients of all backgrounds, and design programs to promote public health particularly among high-risk and underserved populations. We conduct groundbreaking research that advances treatment, we educate tomorrow's physician/researchers, and we work with amazing partners, including other Harvard Medical School-affiliated hospitals.
