Data science and new measurement technologies are revolutionizing cancer research. Formal didactic programming will be offered to promote the cross-pollination of fellows between labs and the oncology medical fellowship programs to ensure the fellows’ transdisciplinary training, productivity, and career development. This collaborative, transdisciplinary research environment, promoted by the program and the broader Johns Hopkins University, fosters a diverse and inclusive community. Additionally, it provides the opportunity to form a cohort of postdoctoral fellows working together to advance the next generation of Convergence Cancer research. Trainees will have the opportunity to develop hybrid wet/dry lab research skills to advance multi-disciplinary team science research.

The Convergence Fellows program will form a cohort of postdocs spanning scientific disciplines to lead this advance through team science challenge problems in cancer research. Trainees will work at the cutting-edge of technology-driven, team-science research in cancer biology under the mentorship of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center (SKCCC) Investigators and large-scale team science projects advancing Convergence research.
