Job
Postdoctoral Fellow
Organization
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Bethesda, MD and surrounding area
Scientific focus area
Immunology, Molecular Biology and Biochemistry
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), one of the largest institutes in the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and part of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), conducts and supports basic and applied research to better understand, treat, and ultimately prevent infectious, immunologic, and allergic diseases.
About the position
A postdoctoral fellowship position is available immediately in the Innate Cells and Th2 Immunity Section (ICTIS) within the Laboratory of Allergic Diseases, NIAID. ICTIS focuses on investigating fundamental mechanisms underlying airway allergic inflammation using mouse models. Research in ICTIS explores how interactions between innate and adaptive immune cells contribute to the initiation and maintenance of adverse reactions to environmental allergens. The lab uses conditional knockout murine models, multi-color flow cytometry, microscopy, RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq), and single-cell technologies to study these processes. ICTIS seeks highly motivated and collaborative candidates with a strong publication record. Candidates should possess independent reasoning skills and a keen interest in learning new technologies.
