Company Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia Job Description Summary
Research assistants (RAs) at the Philadelphia Fed play a key role in the Economic Research Department. Whether they are helping economists prepare briefings on current monetary policy issues, working on economic forecasts, writing some of our newsletters on economic conditions, or analyzing data for long-term research projects, RAs work as an essential part of our team and gain depth of experience. The Bank’s RA program is structured as a two-year program, with most RAs continuing on to graduate programs or other careers in economics or related fields after two years with the Bank. Employment is at-will.

NOTE:  The start date for this position will begin in the Summer of 2025!

The job description below reflects the higher level of a dual grade job posting.  Candidates who possess a slightly lower level of experience, education, or qualifications may also be considered.

Moreover, RAs have access to a number of training and education opportunities, including courses in computer software and programming languages, as well as undergraduate and graduate courses in economics, statistics, and mathematics.

Working as a RA at the Philadelphia Fed is a rewarding experience, whichever career path you ultimately choose to pursue. Our RAs have gone on to top graduate schools in economics, public policy and law; some have found opportunities in other departments in the Bank; and others have moved into higher positions within the Economic Research Department.

The Bank’s RA program is structured as a two-year program, with most RAs continuing on to graduate programs or other careers in economics or related fields after two years with the Bank. Employment is at-will.

The lab's research program focuses on gliomas such as glioblastoma and diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) and the microenvironmental determinants of normal and malignant neural precursor cell behavior. Microglial influences on normal neural precursor cell function and the impact of microglial neuroinflammation following cancer therapies on cellular mechanisms of neuroplasticity and brain homeostasis is one area of deep focus (Monje et al, 2002, Nature Medicine, Monje et al, 2003, Science, Monje et al, 2007, Annals of Neurology, Gibson et al., 2019 Cell). The regulation of normal and malignant glial cells by neuronal activity is another area of particular emphasis (Gibson et al., 2014, Science; Venkatesh et al., 2015, Cell) and the research group is working to decipher and therapeutically target the molecular mechanisms that underlie neuronal interactions with gliomas (Venkatesh et al, 2017, Nature). In addition to these studies of mature neurons in the glioma microenvironment, we also study the influences of neural precursor cells on glioma (Qin et al., 2017, Cell). Together with these basic studies, the research program executes preclinical studies of novel therapeutics for high-grade gliomas (Grasso et al, 2015, Nature Medicine; Nagaraja et al, 2017, Cancer Cell; Mount et al, 2018 Nature Medicine) in order to translate new therapies to the clinic for glial cancers.
