Title: Computational Biology Postdoc


The laboratory of Dr. Mark Hamilton at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center is seeking qualified and motivated candidates for open Postdoctoral Fellow positions focused on circulating tumor DNA and single cell sequencing. Applications of these technologies are centered on understanding disease biology and therapeutic response/resistance mechanisms in B-cell lymphomas, with a focus on CAR-T cell therapy and the interaction of the immune system with lymphoma therapies. The candidates will be part of a multidisciplinary working environment that includes both wet-lab, dry-lab and hybrid personnel, and take advantage of resources linked with high patient volumes and an engaged group of clinical faculty.


The Hamilton lab is part of the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma which offers a highly translational research environment. The lab focuses on genomic technologies focusing on fundamental disease biology in lymphoma as well as clinical correlative biology using human samples. Dr. Hamilton places strong emphasis on trainee mentorship and career development. The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center is the nation’s #1 ranked cancer center, located within the Texas Medical Center – home to 21 hospitals and 8 academic and research institutes. Houston is a large and vibrant city with an affordable cost of living, two major airports, professional sports teams, and cultural activities.


Applicants should have graduated with their PhD no earlier than 2025. Experience in computational biology is required and prior wet lab experience generating genomic sequencing libraries is preferred. Interested applicants are invited to submit a C.V. and cover letter to Dr. Mark Hamilton at: mphamilton@mdanderson.org.
