Our research group at Princess Margaret focuses on lymphoid malignancies and, in particular, on scenarios that are associated with poor outcome such as early progression after treatment, transformation to aggressive lymphoma and relapse in the central nervous system. We are applying cutting-edge tools to primary patient samples to unravel tumour heterogeneity and to develop novel, innovative biomarkers to predict outcome in lymphoma. Our ultimate goal is to improve patient outcomes through a better understanding of the diversity of responses to treatment and by tailoring therapy to each individual patient.

We are seeking a highly motivated individual to maintain large-scale bioinformatics projects, analyze high-throughput data and oversee computational activities in the lab. This individual will work closely with computational biology post-docs, research technicians and our clinical research coordinator. Within our academic environment, this position allows to make a significant contribution to cancer research and directly impact on our patients’ lives, by nature of our strong ties to the clinic. This position will also provide ample opportunities for professional development, for research planning and strategy, and for dissemination of findings at national and international meetings.
