THE PROJECT
THE PROJECT
Single-cell sequencing and spatial omics of pediatric and adult brain tumor patient samples, combining clinical-sample processing with preclinical discovery alongside our pediatric neuro-oncology team. You will drive the wet-lab science side and downstream preclinical studies, while teaming up with our computational track for the data analysis.

Don’t see your fit? The lab is small and growing. Email Itay anyway — if your background and the lab’s direction overlap, there is likely a way to make it work.
