Postdoc: Skin Immunology & Host-Pathogen Interactions

Temple University Lewis Katz School of Medicine; Pennsylvania; Sur place; USD 52 000 - 68 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Temple University Lewis Katz School of Medicine seeks motivated postdoctoral researchers to study inflammation and innate immunity in the skin during viral infections and chronic conditions. Projects use in vitro assays, organoid cultures, and knockout/transgenic mice to uncover inflammatory and viral restriction pathways.

Experiments cover transcriptomics and gene editing, with a focus on how these processes maintain homeostasis and relate to human diseases, including cancer and chronic

Qualifications

• Ph.D. in biochemistry, cell biology, immunology, microbiology and/or virology.
• Peer-reviewed publications in immunology, virology and/or signal transduction.
• Training in molecular biology, biochemistry, immunology, signal transduction, cell culture methods, and/or mouse models of disease.
• Excellent written and oral communication skills in English.
• Willingness and ability to handle mice and infectious materials.

Responsabilités

• Investigate inflammation and innate immunity in the skin during viral infections.
• Utilize in vitro assays, conventional and organoid cell cultures, and mouse models (knockout/transgenic).
