The Reya lab, located at The Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center at Columbia University Medical Center, is seeking highly motivated postdoctoral fellows to join our multi-disciplinary research program in cancer biology. We are dedicated to understanding the biological mechanisms underlying the development and progression of aggressive cancers, and their resistance to current therapies with a focus on pancreatic cancer and leukemia. We use a combination of cutting-edge technologies, including comprehensive genomics and computational biology, genetic and transplantation-based cancer models, and real-time in vitro and in vivo imaging to gain new insights into the biology of disease and develop new approaches to therapy.
