recognized one of the Best Places to Work by Glassdoor and People magazine's 50 Companies That Care. Our mission is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. We look for the best people to join our teams and provide world-class facilities, state-of-the-art technologies, and extraordinary support to ensure scientific progress to support our mission.
The Center for Modeling Pediatric Diseases (CMPD) plays a key role in providing that support. As a new initiative at St Jude Children's Research Hospital (SJCRH), its mission is to serve the research community by delivering high quality, fully characterized, patient-derived,
pluripotent cells. Our aim is to generate these cells on our fully automated, state of the art, robotic system. Our methodologies are based on the Nobel Prize winning work of Shinya Yamanaka, which culminated in the ability to create induced pluripotent stem cells (i PSCs) from terminally differentiated human somatic cells.
These i PSCs permit the derivation of both normal and disease phenotype, patient-matched cell lines, and are therefore key to developing personalized medicine approaches. i PSCs provide a vital tool to study the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in patient-specific responses to treatments, and in the future will form the basis of creating patient-derived,
patient-matched cellular therapeutics. Since i PSCs are derived from somatic cells, they can be created without harvesting vital stem cell pools in the body.
For example, CMPD is able to generate i PSCs from blood and urine, which are collected as part of routine clinical monitoring. We therefore circumvent the ethical issues encountered by working with stem cells from donated oocytes, or embryonic stem cells. As CMPD establishes our methodologies and implements our automation we seek an exceptional and motivated individual who will be able to execute standard operating procedures accurately and efficiently. The transition from manual to automated requires a highly organized, methodical, and algorithmic mindset.
This role provides an exceptional opportunity to learn both manual and automation programming routines. Ability to demonstrate attention to detail is key, as is a desire to work in a highly reproducible manner, by close adherence to optimized SOPs. However, an ability to innovate, and determine where evolutions can be made to improve time and cost efficiencies, in coordination with the team, is also highly desirable. Daily implementation of advanced cell culture techniques, including differentiation protocols in the future, and the ability to undertake sophisticated characterization assays is required.
There are opportunities to learn bioinformatics and data analysis skills, including running machine learning pipelines to evaluate microscope images of developing i PSC colonies. Our automation system includes the latest model instruments: Hamilton Vantage; Hamilton Lab Elite; Cytation 5; Cytomat (500 capacity); King Fisher Flex; Bio Store III. If you are excited by using state-of-the-art instrumentation, if you are able to take a one-off research experiment and optimize it to make it unbreakably reproducible, and would like to do for biology what Henry T Ford did for car manufacturing, then we would like to hear from you!
Job Responsibilities The successful candidate will assist the CMPD Director to develop: Daily implementation of advanced cell culture techniques, including reprogramming / biobanking protocols, and the ability to undertake sophisticated characterization assays. Follows SOPs necessary to automate various manual stem cell workflows such as splitting of stem cells, the purification of specific populations, freezing cells, setting up and analyzing various quality control and characterization assays. Assists with the cryopreservation of bar-coded samples using an automated liquid N2 system.
Manages specific, but limited, laboratory functions such as inventory management, ordering, instrument maintenance etc. Demonstrates effort to increase knowledge in relevant areas of research and participates in the presentation and publication of research results, if necessary. Conducts scientific projects and maintains efficient laboratory operations with minimal supervision. Data entry into various databases Assists with stem cell training. Performs other duties as assigned or directed in order to meet the goals and objectives of the CMPD Core and of St Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Accordingly, the opportunity exists for candidates to immerse themselves in world-class collaborations with leading experts in the fields of oncology, neuroscience, and infectious disease.
In addition, postdocs have access to a wealth of cutting-edge research core support services. Taken together, a St. Jude postdoc opportunity is an unbounded educational experience for trainees. The principal focus of the Neumann lab at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is developing novel radiomedicals with diagnostic and/or therapeutic potential toward improving
disease outcomes. We often develop radiomedicals with the goal of translating them into imaging agents for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) to better delineate disease and biological status.
Our lab utilizes synthetic organic chemistry and radiochemistry to synthesize these novel molecules and imaging agents. We then characterize their associated biological activity in relevant cell culture and live animal imaging studies with the goal of clinical translation. We frequently use PET/CT and PET/MRI to evaluate our novel imaging agents in live animals. However, we are now also utilizing Focused Ultrasound techniques to improve therapeutic delivery to the Central Nervous System by reversible
blood brain barrier disruption and sonodynamic therapy. Postdoctoral fellows at St.
