    Primary Work Address: 373 Plantation Street, Worcester, MA, 01605Current HHMI Employees, click here to apply via your Workday account. About the Watson Lab The Watson Lab at UMass Chan Medical School leads pioneering research in cancer systems-genomics by constructing tumor-like genomes in the lab to investigate chromosomal aberrations such as amplifications and deletions, as well as structural variants. Leveraging the principles of forward genetics and in vitro evolution, the lab generates aneuploid mutants from normal diploid epithelial cells to understand the origins and functions of recurrent chromosomal alterations found in human cancers. The Watson lab utilizes cell type of origin models for various cancer types to understand the tissue-specify of chromosomal alteration patterns in cancer. By comparing these engineered genomes with genomic and transcriptomic data from human tumors, the Watson Lab seeks to uncover the functional roles-including phenotypic effects-of frequent chromosomal abnormalities, such as gains of 1q and 8q, thereby advancing our understanding of tumor biology and potential therapeutic targets. 🔗 Learn more about our work: Watson Lab website About the Role: We are seeking highly motivated Postdoctoral Scientists to run independent projects within the Watson Lab.
