Join our Team

Got a passion for research? Chromatin nerd? We want you here. Research in the Anastas Lab is multidisciplinary and applies cell biology, mouse cancer models, genomics and pre-clinical pharmacology to better understand brain tumors and how to treat them.

Rigor, integrity and transparency are integral to our science. Dr. Anastas is committed to mentoring the next generation of cancer researchers in an inspiring and collaborative lab environment.

The Anastas Lab believes diverse perspectives, backgrounds and experiences are essential to research innovation and progress. We welcome trainees and scientists who are from underrepresented minorities in science and medicine to join our lab. We do our best to foster an inclusive training environment. We are team-oriented.
