Cancer Therapeutics and Immunology Postdoctoral Positions: Identifying New Therapeutic Targets in Lung Cancer.

UPMC Hillman Cancer Center (Hillman) is a **National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center** - one of only 53 in the U.S. At UPMC Hillman Cancer Center, our researchers collaborate with our clinician-scientists to advance the most promising laboratory studies into novel clinical trials in order to provide patients with early access to new and innovative treatments. The **nationally and internationally renowned research** at UPMC Hillman Cancer Center includes a range of disciplines, from cancer prevention and early detection to novel therapeutic discovery, survivorship, and end-of-life care. We are also dedicated to the **education and training** of the next generation of cancer researchers and physicians, as well as the ongoing recruitment of world-renowned scientists. UPMC Hillman Cancer Center is the only NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in western Pennsylvania. We are dedicated to excellence for our patients, and we are working to make vast strides in the global effort to reduce the burden of cancer.

The Zhang lab develops the most advanced mouse models for lung cancer immunotherapy. The main research focuses of the Zhang’s lab are:

- **establishing new immunocompetent mouse models for lung cancer and utilizing them to study the therapeutic efficacy and mechanisms of novel combination of targeted therapy with immunotherapy**
- **identifying new therapeutic vulnerabilities to overcome drug resistance in lung cancer**
- **characterizing the organ-specific tumor immune contexture to develop immunotherapeutic strategies**
