Badalona, España Institut de Recerca contra la Leucèmia Josep Carreras A tiempo completo

The Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute (IJC) is a comprehensive **cancer research center** dedicated to conduct research and drive innovation in the epidemiological, preventive, clinical, translational, and basic aspects of leukaemia and other hematologic malignancies, with the final aim of finding a cure for these diseases. It was created in 2010, and since then has experienced an exponential growth.

The IJC is also part of the network of Excellence Research Centers of Catalonia **(CERCA)** and was accredited as a **Severo Ochoa Center of Excellence** by the Ministry of Science, Innovation, and Universities in 2024. Since 2018, the Institute has also been accredited by the Scientific Foundation of the Spanish Association Against Cancer **(FCAECC)** Additionally, IJC is one of the centers integrated into the Institut de Recerca Germans Trias i Pujol (IGTP) accreditation as Accredited Health Research Institute (IIS) by the Carlos III Health Institute **(ISCIII)**.

The IJC's main headquarters is located within the Can Ruti Biomedical Campus, alongside other leading biomedical institutions, providing direct access to cutting-edge scientific and technological facilities, as well as complementary community services. The IJC has **six locations integrated into reference hospitals**: Hospital Germans Trias i Pujol, Hospital Clínic, Hospital Sant Pau, Hospital Josep Trueta, Hospital del Mar and Hospital San Joan de Déu. This facilitates close collaboration between basic and clinical researchers, fostering translational research that integrates basic science with clinical practice in clinical settings.

We are looking for a** Postdoctoral Researcher**for T-ALL Team/ALL Group, under the supervision of Dra. Eulàlia Genescà.

**RESEARCH DESCRIPTION**

Although intensive chemotherapy has been crucial for improving survival to up to 93% of T- cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) in children, the survival rates in adults are still very poor, remaining below 50%. The main cause of treatment failure, in both scenarios, is relapse. Relapsed patients have a dismal prognosis, due to the rapid progression of the recurrent course of the disease and the lack of new therapeutic options. Application of multi-omics techniques in matched-diagnosis (DX)-relapse (RE) DNA samples have identified variants at DX and RE. However, the very low frequency of some of these genetic events at diagnosis limits the possibility to use as reliable genetic marker to predict relapse. Moreover, the high heterogeneity of the limited genomic data available for this leukemia impaired to identify them. Therefore, our hypothesis is that if we increase the number of the genomic data, together with the number of cases analyzed and combine with the analysis of other non-genetic data-sets we could discover genetic and nongenetic markers that serve to identify at diagnosis those patients who will relapse. For that a team of specialists in different areas will work together, with the aim of anticipating to treatment failure and providing information of possible new therapeutic alternatives, to finally increase the outcome of these patients.
