Postdoctoral Position : Immune Regulation
University of California-Irvine Department of Physiology and Biophysics in the School of Medicine, University of California, Irvine (UCI), seeks candidates at the postdoctoral level for exciting and fully funded... projects in Immune Regulation.
Description: The project's primary goals are to define how regulatory T (Treg) cells selectively fine-tune CNS autoimmunity and study the role of mechanical signals in T cell functions. In the coming years, we envision identifying the fundamental basis of how Tregs protect our central nervous system during autoimmune diseases and promote remyelination. Studies will include animal models of neuroinflammation and orthotropic tumors in fate-mapped reporter mice to uncover new insights into immune regulation. We use various technologies, including confocal and 2-photon microscopy, cell culture, molecular biology, flow cytometry, and live calcium imaging using our latest genetically encoded calcium probe, Salsa6f.
Qualifications: Ph.D. in Immunology or Biological sciences. Candidates should have a record of completed graduate research that can be directly applied to the field of Immunology. Prior experience in Cell and Molecular Biology, Microscopy, and Calcium signaling is highly desirable. The successful candidate must have a strong publication record and have a broad range of skills, including maintaining effective interactions and collaborations with other members of the lab and scientific community. Keeping the laboratory notebook, recording acquired data, and following written, and verbal directions are essential. Research independence, including writing manuscripts and research projects, is highly desirable.
