Summary

Postdoctoral Fellow – Bone Metastatic Cancer Biology. A fully funded postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Conor

C. Lynch within the Department of Tumor Microenvironment & Metastasis at Moffitt Cancer Center. The Lynch laboratory studies the molecular and cellular mechanisms that drive tumor progression and metastasis within the bone microenvironment, with a particular focus on bone metastatic prostate cancer, multiple myeloma, and osteosarcoma. Research in the laboratory integrates tumor biology, bone biology, and immunology to understand how cancer cells interact with the bone niche and how these interactions promote tumor growth, therapy resistance, and disease progression.

The laboratory has a strong translational focus, including the development and testing of novel small molecule inhibitors and therapeutic strategies targeting the tumor–bone microenvironment.
