The Cancer Research Institute (CRI) and the Canadian Cancer Trials Group (CCTG) have announced a multi-year collaboration to develop and conduct clinical trials in immunotherapy. There is an urgent need to collaborate on clinical trials and translational research and to unite leading experts.
The preferred candidates will have a combination of academic and clinical experience, with demonstrated clinical expertise in family medicine, will exhibit strong potential for innovative and scholarly research, and provide evidence of an ability to work in an interdisciplinary, collaborative environment. Clinical responsibilities will be based at the Queen’s Family Health Team in Kingston and include taking call approximately one (1) night per month and three (3) weekends per year.
