Dear colleagues It was brought to my attention that this is not a Stanford but a Frederick National Laboratory fellowship. My apologies for that. Best regards Paco Dear Colleagues See below an exciting opportunity for a 2025 Comparative and Experimental Pathology Fellowship at Stanford School of Medicine. https://leidosbiomed.csod.com/ux/ats/careersite/4/home/requisition/4282?c=le... Vet Path Fellow Job ID: req4282 Employee Type: exempt full-time Division: Laboratory Animal Science Program Facility: Frederick: Ft Detrick Location: PO Box B, Frederick, MD 21702 USA The Frederick National Laboratory is operated by Leidos Biomedical Research, Inc. The lab addresses some of the most urgent and intractable problems in the biomedical sciences in cancer and AIDS, drug development and first-in-human clinical trials, applications of nanotechnology in medicine, and rapid response to emerging threats of infectious diseases. Accountability, Compassion, Collaboration, Dedication, Integrity and Versatility; it's the FNL way. This position description does not represent a specific job but represents a sourcing announcement for current and future open positions. Our positions span a wide range of skills, so candidates who express an interest may be considered for upcoming positions at Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The Laboratory Animal Sciences Program (LASP) supports biomedical research at the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research (FNLCR) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI). We are offering a one-year post-doctoral fellowship for candidates seeking experience in lab animal pathology to prepare for a career in industry or research. LASP is a highly collaborative environment with access to multiple state-of-art core labs. This position is targeted to board-certified veterinary pathologists or board-eligible trainees. As this fellowship is designed to assist candidates in preparing for boards (ACVP, ECVP), board preparation time will be allowed. Fellows will train under a team of veterinary pathologists in the Molecular Histopathology Laboratory (MHL) and the Center for Advanced Preclinical Research (CAPR) with a focus on cutting-edge interdisciplinary research. Trainees will gain practical experience applying pathology training in a research environment, including phenotyping, digital image analysis, and toxicologic pathology. KEY ROLES/RESPONSIBILITIES This posting is contingent on future openings. This position is a one-year term with possible extension. * Become familiar with all phases of pathology-driven research, including study design, gross & microscopic examination of laboratory animal species, molecular pathology (IHC, RNAscope, multiplex IF), digital imaging, and advanced histologic techniques (tissue microarray construction, laser-capture microscopy, nucleic acid characterization, etc.) * Utilize bioimage analysis platforms (HALO, Aperio, QuPath) in biomedical research applications to gain an understanding of how artificial intelligence can be applied in modern pathology laboratories. * Application of emerging pathology-enhanced -omics platforms – spatial biology tools – including Nanostring (GeoMX, CosMX), Akoya (CODEX, Phenocycler, Phenoimager HT), and 10x Genomics (Visium, Chromium). * Participate in monthly lab animal pathology seminars, research meetings, and scientific publications. BASIC QUALIFICATIONS To be considered for this position, you must minimally meet the knowledge, skills, and abilities listed below: * Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM or VMD) from an accredited college/university or equivalent degree. Additional qualifying experience may be substituted for the required education.
