The Frederick National Laboratory is a Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) sponsored by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and operated by Leidos Biomedical Research, Inc.  The lab addresses some of the most urgent and intractable problems in the biomedical sciences in cancer and AIDS, drug development and first-in-human clinical trials, applications of nanotechnology in medicine, and rapid response to emerging threats of infectious diseases.

Accountability, Compassion, Collaboration, Dedication, Integrity and Versatility; it's the FNL way.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

The Applied/Developmental Research Directorate (ADRD) integrates two diverse laboratory and support programs: support to the Division of Cancer Treatment and Diagnosis (DCTD) and the Clinical Services Program (CSP). DCTD facilitates paths of unique molecules, diagnostic tests, and therapeutic interventions to clinical applications, including distinct molecular signatures for cancer, refined molecular assays, and the state-of-the-art imaging techniques that are too high-risk for industry or academia to pursue. CSP Laboratories provide processing and testing support to approximately 150 NIH-sponsored clinical trials, with five program laboratories registered to perform testing regulated under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA).

  • This position also requires close daily interaction with laboratory and medical staff
  • Other responsibilities include, but are not limited to, transportation of samples and correspondence between FNLCR locations, transporting the vehicle for routine repair and/or service, and maintaining accurate transport records.
  • Ability to routinely lift and carry up to  50lbs; sit for periods of time, bend and stoop
