Oregon Health & Science University is a nationally recognized health and research university. With over 17,000 employees, OHSU is one of the state’s largest employers, providing excellent job opportunities, career growth and a very competitive total rewards package. OHSU is located in beautiful Portland, which is consistently ranked one of the most desirable places to live, and offers ready access to a vibrant city as well as a vast array of outdoor activities. The Knight Cancer Institute at OHSU is an international leader in cancer research and precision treatment. Our institute’s director, Brian Druker, M.D., helped usher in the era of precision cancer medicine with research that led to the breakthrough drug Gleevec®. The Knight Cancer Institute is the only National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated Cancer Center between Sacramento and Seattle, an honor earned only by the nation's top cancer centers. It is also the headquarters for the NCI’s SWOG collaborative, a cancer research cooperative group that designs and conducts multidisciplinary clinical trials to improve the practice of medicine. The Knight Cancer Institute has attracted both public support and private philanthropy to build upon its scientific and clinical leadership. Most recently, it completed a campaign to raise $1 billion in new funding to expand its expertise in precision medicine with a plan to improve the early detection of lethal forms of the disease. These collaborations have enabled the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute to recruit and retain some of the world’s top scientists and clinicians to pursue its comprehensive strategy.
