The Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) trains doctors who put patients at the centre of their exemplary care. The School, which offers both undergraduate and graduate programmes, is named after local philanthropist Tan Sri Dato Lee Kong Chian. Established in 2010 by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, in partnership with Imperial College London, LKCMedicine aims to be a model for innovative medical education and a centre for transformative research. The School's primary clinical partner is the National Healthcare Group, a leader in public healthcare recognised for the quality of its medical expertise, facilities and teaching. The School is transitioning to an NTU medical school ahead of the 2028 successful conclusion of the NTU-Imperial partnership to set up a Joint Medical School. In August 2024, we welcomed our first intake of the NTU MBBS programme, that has been recently enhanced to include themes like precision medicine and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare, with an expanded scope in the medical humanities. Graduates from the five-year undergraduate medical degree programme will have a strong understanding of the scientific basis of medicine, with an emphasis on technology, data science and the humanities.
We are looking for a Research Fellow to advance translational cancer research within the Cancer Discovery & Regenerative Medicine Programme under Asst Prof Kong Li Ren. The successful candidate will lead projects focused on tumour evolution, cancer metabolism, therapy resistance, and the tumour microenvironment, using platforms such as spatial transcriptomics, multiplex immunohistochemistry, and proteogenomic profiling to identify predictive biomarkers and therapeutic vulnerabilities. The role also includes lab management, mentoring junior researchers, and supporting grant preparation and reporting.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead and execute research projects on cancer metabolism and therapy resistance
- Conduct spatial transcriptomics, multiplex IHC, and proteomic profiling
- Analyze clinical samples and collaborate on multi-omics data interpretation
- Manage lab operations, mentor junior staff, and support grant reporting
- Contribute to manuscript writing, figures, and presentations
Key Competencies and Requirements:
- PhD in biology, medicine, or related field
2 years of postdoctoral experience in cancer biology or metabolism
- Expertise in live cell imaging, FACS analysis, multiplex IHC, spatial transcriptomics (GeoMx DSP), and proteomics
- Experience with clinical samples and biomarker discovery workflows
- Excellent communication and lab management skills
- Independent, organized, and collaborative team player
We regret to inform you that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
