UNC hiring site posting: Position Posting

The laboratory seeks a post-doctoral fellow to participate in our research program on the role of regulatory T cells in promoting resolution of acute lung injury. We are looking for an enthusiastic post-doctoral fellow to join our lab. The successful candidate will gain experience in a number of immunologic, transcriptomic and proteomic analyses. Importantly, these projects will provide the necessary training and expertise that will translate into future research projects for ambitious and motivated scientists with aspirations for their own independent research careers.

In addition to research, the post-doctoral fellow will be actively involved with writing scientific papers and presenting talks at scientific meetings. The expectation will be that this person develops an area of expertise in aspects of host defense and immune responses in the lungs. The post-doctoral fellow will have the potential to be supported by an T32 Training Grant and will join a cohort of trainees that meet regularly to share their research findings and learn about new topics in immunology and acute lung injury.

Educational Requirements:
Applicants should possess a PhD in Immunology, Genetics, Molecular Biology, or a related field.

Qualifications and Experience:
Experience with flow cytometry, functional genomic experiments such as ChIP-Seq, RNA-seq or ATAC-seq desired. Candidates should also have strong communication and analytical skills.
