While the mission of Fox Chase Cancer Center to "prevail over cancer" is very precise, our over 70 robust science programs spread across 5 departments are remarkably diverse. Our research departments include labs studying the most fundamental cellular processes often co-opted in cancer to those translating their findings to the clinic. Complementing these programs are superior core facilities, outstanding support staff, and a collaborative environment that together make Fox Chase a truly outstanding place to work.
Areas of Research
The Postdoctoral Research Program promotes training in any of Fox Chase's laboratories engaged in research. The following are areas of research with faculty participating in the postdoctoral training program:
In addition to numerous journal clubs, training seminars, science writing, career preparation, one-on-one coaching, joint laboratory meetings, and intramural and extramural seminar series, Fox Chase provides a concerted training program specifically designed to maximize productivity and equip postdocs to make informed career choices upon completing their postdoctoral experience at Fox Chase. Moreover, professional network and social community building both inside and outside of the lab is encouraged through social events, peer-peer and near-peer opportunities, and Cancer Center-wide training events.
