Befristeter Vertrag
Vollzeit, Teilzeit

The German Cancer Research Center is the largest biomedical research institution in Germany. With more than 3,000 employees, we operate an extensive scientific program in the field of cancer research.

Applications are invited for an epidemiologist to work on projects related to early detection and screening of lung cancer within the Division of Cancer Epidemiology.

The Division of Cancer Epidemiology conducts studies within several prospective cohorts and cohort consortia in Germany, Europe and the USA, and is also involved in randomized trials to test approaches for lung cancer screening by low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). Main areas of research include the development of absolute risk prediction models, and studies for the identification and validation of markers for early cancer detection.

The Division of Cancer Epidemiology is seeking a Epidemiologist.

Description:

The successful candidate will contribute to ongoing studies as well as the design, logistic organization and analyses of new projects. The main duties of the post include:

To perform studies for the evaluation of candidate biomarkers of lung cancer risk and early detection
To develop and evaluate general population models of lung cancer risk prediction
To develop and cross-validate diagnostic algorithms for early lung cancer detection, combining data on individual cancer risk factors, imaging data and biological markers
To prepare papers for refereed journals and other academic outputs
To assist with the logistic organization of new projects on lung cancer screening, based on international data pooling
