    Description
    Department Overview


    The OHSU Knight Cancer Institute, known as one of the pioneers in personalized cancer medicine, is an international leader in research and cancer treatment.

    Driven by its mission to end cancer as we know it, the institute is building upon its expertise in targeted treatments to advance research in cancer prevention and control in populations with or at risk of cancer and across the translational continuum.


    Oregon Health and Science University's Knight Cancer Institute is a pioneer in personalized cancer medicine and an international leader in research and cancer treatment.

    The Knight envisions a world freed from the burden of cancer by working together to make bold advances in understanding cancer biology, detection, treatment, and survival.

    The Knight includes the Division of Oncological Science (DOS) that provides an academic home for cross-disciplinary cancer researchers that leverages team science and collaboration ).

    DOS consists of four sections representing research areas and scientific disciplines that support innovation and translation of discovery to impact cancer patients and the broader population we serve.


    The division will be comprised of non-clinical faculty, trainees and staff dedicated to basic, translational and population-based research that supports the strategic vision of the Knight Cancer Institute.

    The Division head has the authority to offer faculty appointments, contingent on the approval of the Dean of the School of Medicine (SoM).

    The faculty with primary appointments in the SoM Knight DOS would be non-clinical researchers while Departments or Divisions within the School of Medicine that have the ability to grant clinical priviliges will serve as the primary home for clinical researchers.

    Faculty whose primary appointments are outside of the division may have secondary appointments within the DOS.

    Every Knight Cancer employee is expected to embody our guiding principles:


    • We act BOLDLY-Breakthroughs require pushing the boundaries of science, exploring new frontiers, and thinking differently
    • We SUPPORT each other-Respect leads to trust, which leads to excellence
    • We work as a CONNECTED team - We must leverage our collective brain power to conquer cancer because no one individual can do it alone
    Function/Duties of Position


    The Center for Experimental Therapeutics at the Knight invites applications for a research faculty position in the broadly defined area of Cancer Biology at the Research Assistant Professor level.

    The position will remain open until filled. The center focuses on drug discovery and development from preclinical phases to clinical and translational research. The center unites cutting-edge technologies with a multidisciplinary group of clinicians and scientists to advance drug discovery and development.

    For this position, expertise is required in the specific area of cancer biology, including, but not limited to, cancer immunology, single-cell biology, tumor heterogeneity, chemical biology, mitochondrial biology, proteomics, genomics and computational biology, cancer metabolism, cancer genetics, cancer cell biology, tumor microenvironment, mechanisms of therapy resistance, metastasis, oncogenic signal transduction pathways, genome integrity, cancer epigenetics, and /or systems biology.


    Outstanding candidates with a strong commitment to establishing a cutting-edge research program in cancer biology to address fundamental questions in biology and medicine are encouraged to apply.

    The successful candidate will work effectively with faculty, staff, students, and researchers from diverse backgrounds. Primary selection criteria will focus on the potential for establishing an innovative and externally funded independent research program.

    New faculty will join a multidisciplinary and collaborative research environment to complement strengths in chemical biology, cancer biology, biochemistry, immunology, organic/medicinal chemistry, and drug discovery & development within the Center for Experimental Therapeutics and broadly across the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute.

    The candidate will supervise graduate students and postdoctoral fellows and contribute to the research programs. The successful candidate will be expected to conduct a vigorous program of original research at a world-class level.
