The Landau Lab at Weill Cornell Medicine is seeking an exceptional scientist, writer, and mentor to serve as Scientific Administrator. This is not a conventional administrative position, but a scientific leadership role for someone who wants to shape research strategy, accelerate discovery, mentor emerging scientists, and communicate transformative ideas to funders, collaborators, editors, and the broader scientific community.
The Landau Lab studies human somatic evolution using advanced genomics, single-cell and spatial technologies, liquid biopsy, and computational modeling. Our interdisciplinary team brings together experimental scientists, computational biologists, physician-scientists, and engineers to understand how human cells evolve across aging, premalignancy, and cancer, innovating way to translate those insights into new approaches for detecting and treating disease.
Working closely with Dr. Dan Landau, the Scientific Administrator will serve as an intellectual and strategic partner across the lab’s research portfolio. The successful candidate will help move projects from early concepts to rigorous studies, competitive grant applications, influential publications, and broader scientific impact.
Approximately 6+ years of research experience (i.e. academia, non-profit, pharma / biotech, or government).
Experience with clinical research management highly desired.
Knowledge of virology, gene therapy, and next generation sequencing technologies a plus.
