Post-doctoral Fellow
Organization
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Bethesda, MD and surrounding area
Scientific focus area
Immunology, Virology
The Antibody Immunity Section (AIMS) is a research lab at the NIAID Vaccine Research Center (VRC), focused on HIV and COVID vaccines and neutralizing antibodies. Researchers at the VRC have access to excellent resources, including cytometry and cell sorting, sequencing and bioinformatics, structural biology, clinical trial samples, and robust collaborations with amazing colleagues; and opportunities to access product development teams and clinical trial infrastructure.
About the position
The aims of AIMS are:
- To understand pathways of HIV broadly neutralizing antibody development and co-evolution with virus
- To design and test HIV Vaccines inspired by antibody-virus co-evolution studies
- To discover and characterize new HIV bNAbs with potential clinical use
- To understand SARS-CoV-2 and pan-sarbecovirus antibody development
We are looking for a postdoc to take on projects in HIV vaccinology, specifically:
- HIV antibody-virus co-evolution studies
- HIV lineage-based vaccines targeting MPER and V1V2

Postdoctoral position at the NCI
A postdoctoral position is available at the DNA Replication Group (PI: Mirit I. Aladjem, Ph.D.), a part of the NCI’s Developmental Therapeutics Branch in Bethesda, Maryland. Our group aims to understand cellular networks that signal to and from chromatin to modulate DNA replication. Since many regulatory feedback pathways are deregulated in cancer cells, the results of these studies will help our understanding of cancer biology and the mechanisms underlying therapeutic strategies.

Staff Scientist
A Staff Scientist Position is open in the Synaptic Function Section at the NINDS, NIH. The selected candidate will lead multidisciplinary investigations into reprogramming mitochondrial trafficking and energy metabolism. These studies will leverage advanced imaging of living neurons derived from diseased mouse models and human iPSCs to elucidate mechanisms governing mitochondria positioning and energy metabolism, and the brain’s adaptative responses to dynamic energy stress.
