Postdoctoral in Immune Response to Respiratory Bacterial and Viral infections

Highlights:

1. A postdoctoral/research associate position is available in the Rochester General Hospital Research Institute in NY in the laboratory of Dr. Michael Pichichero, Director Rochester General Research Institute, Center for Infectious Diseases and Immunology to study respiratory bacterial and viral pathogenesis and immune responses in children
2. We are a clinical/translational lab.  Experience with immunoassays, flow cytometry and mouse models preferred. Candidate must have excellent communication skills and be capable of working independently, should have a Ph.D in Immunology or a related field and be qualified to work in the USA. Send CV, contact information for 3 references and cover letter describing research accomplishments and goals to email: David.Verhoeven@rochestergeneral.org.

Postdoctoral in Immunology/ USA

Highlights:

1. A postdoctoral fellow position is available at Department of Immunology, Center for Cancer Immunology Research, Univ. of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, to expand the exciting research on the receptors of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs).  
2. A special dendritic cell subset, pDCs play a critical role in anti-viral innate immune responses by secreting large quantities of IFNa/b; yet, uncontrolled pDC activation and IFN production are associated with autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE) and psoriasis. We have researched several pDC specific surface receptors and demonstrated an important molecular mechanism initiated by pDC receptors to regulate pDCs’ innate immunity.  
3. The prospective postdoctoral fellow will join a fresh and energizing team to unravel the biology of pDCs through investigating receptor-ligand interaction and dissecting the implicated signaling pathways. Successful candidates will apply his/her knowledge in immunology, biochemistry and disease model analysis to study pDCs and their receptors in humans as well as in mouse models. An outstanding salary and benefits package is included, with the salary level commensurate with experience.
