Description

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellow to support translational and clinical research initiatives in neuro-oncology at UPMC Hillman Cancer Center and the University of Pittsburgh. The postdoc will contribute to quantitative analyses of brain tumor datasets, including imaging, molecular, and clinical outcomes data, and will assist in the design, execution, and interpretation of retrospective and prospective clinical studies. Responsibilities include statistical modeling, data management, preparation of abstracts and manuscripts, and collaboration with multidisciplinary clinical teams. The postdoc will also participate in clinical research coordination activities, including protocol development support, regulatory documentation assistance, data capture oversight, and interface with institutional research infrastructure. The ideal candidate will have strong analytical skills, experience with biostatistics and coding (e.g., R, Python, or similar), and an interest in translational neuroscience and brain tumor therapeutics. Qualifications: Doctorate in Medicine or a related biomedical field; minimum of three years of experience or substantive exposure in clinical research and/or a hospital-based clinical environment. Demonstrated proficiency in quantitative data analysis and familiarity with statistical software (e.g., R, Python, SAS, or equivalent). Experience with clinical research protocols, IRB processes, and data management systems is preferred. Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across multidisciplinary teams. Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail, with the capacity to manage multiple projects simultaneously. Professionalism, discretion in handling sensitive data, and adherence to regulatory and ethical standards are required. Flexibility in scheduling to accommodate clinical workflows, research deadlines, and occasional time-sensitive projects is expected.

Responsibilities
