About SickKids

Dedicated exclusively to children and their families, The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) is one of the largest and most respected paediatric healthcare centres in the world. As innovators in child health, we lead and partner to improve the health of children through the integration of healthcare, leading-edge research and education. Our reputation would not have been built - nor could it be maintained - without the skills, knowledge and experience of the extraordinary people who come to work here every day. SickKids is committed to ongoing learning and development, and features a caring and supportive work environment that combines exceptionally high standards of practice.

When you join SickKids, you become part of our community. We share a commitment and determination to fulfill our vision of Healthier Children. A Better World.

Don't miss out on the opportunity to work alongside the world's best in paediatric healthcare.

Position Description

We are seeking an outstanding postdoctoral fellow to join our growing research program focused on identifying and targeting vulnerabilities in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Our laboratory studies how nucleocytoplasmic transport, ribosome biogenesis, and related cellular programs are rewired in specific molecular subtypes of pediatric AML, and how these pathways can be therapeutically exploited. The fellow will help develop fusion-driven models of pediatric AML and evaluate therapeutic vulnerabilities using ex vivo and in vivo systems, including cord blood transduction models, primary AML specimens, and mouse transplantation studies. The fellow may also contribute to studies using patient-derived xenograft models.

The successful candidate will lead a project focused on:

Defining nuclear export-dependent and ribosome biogenesis-dependent biologic states in pediatric AML
Identifying molecular subtype-specific and shared therapeutic dependencies
Developing fusion-driven experimental models of pediatric AML
Evaluating targeted therapeutic strategies using in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo approaches

This position offers a well-defined project with strong translational potential, access to primary patient samples and established leukemia models, mentorship and support for fellowship applications, and opportunities for publication, presentation, and career development.

Key Responsibilities

Design, execute, and troubleshoot experiments investigating ribosome biogenesis, nuclear export, and related dependencies in AML
Generate and characterize fusion-driven AML models, including viral transduction of human cord blood or hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells with leukemia-associated fusion oncogenes
Perform viral transduction and gene-modification experiments using approaches such as shRNA knockdown, CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing, and/or overexpression systems
Perform functional assays, including flow cytometry, colony-forming assays, drug sensitivity testing, viability/apoptosis assays, qPCR, western blotting, immunofluorescence, and protein synthesis assays
Assist with mouse transplantation and patient-derived xenograft experiments, including sample preparation, monitoring, analysis of engraftment, and therapeutic response studies
Analyze and interpret experimental data using standard statistical and analysis software such as GraphPad Prism, FlowJo, Excel, and R
Contribute to analysis of transcriptomic, genomic, or functional screening datasets, including differential expression, pathway-level analysis, and integration with experimental findings
Stay current with advances in pediatric AML biology, hematopoiesis, nuclear transport, ribosome biogenesis, and targeted therapeutics
Prepare figures, manuscripts, fellowship applications, and presentations
Present findings at lab meetings, seminars, and national or international conferences
Help mentor junior trainees in experimental design, lab techniques, data analysis, and scientific communication

Qualifications

Applicants should have:

A PhD in molecular biology, cancer biology, biochemistry, genetics, stem cell biology, or a related field, with eligibility for appointment at the postdoctoral fellow level. Candidates should have no more than four years of cumulative research experience following completion of the PhD.
A strong background in cancer biology, hematopoiesis, leukemia biology, or hematologic malignancies
Experience with mammalian cell culture, molecular biology, flow cytometry, and functional cellular assays
Experience with viral transduction, including overexpression, shRNA knockdown, and/or CRISPR/Cas9-based gene modification
Experience with hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, cord blood models, genome editing, or leukemia models
Some experience with mouse models, transplantation assays, or assisting with PDX studies is an asset
Familiarity with basic bioinformatic analysis, including working with transcriptomic or genomic datasets and using R for data visualization and analysis
Strong organizational, analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills
Ability to work independently while contributing to a collaborative team environment

Employment Type: Full-time temporary 1 year contract, 1.0 FTE
