St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital Postdoc募集
Postdoctoral Position in St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Department of Immunology
A postdoctoral position is available in St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to study cellular signaling, especially the JNK and p38 MAP kinase pathways, in the innate and adaptive immune systems. Main experimental models involve genetically modified mice and primary cells derived from these mice, namely T cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells. The current research interests include study of basic immune processes (activation and differentiation of T cells, Toll-like receptor signaling in macrophages and dendritic cells, and development of the immune system), and dissection of molecular mechanisms of immune-related diseases (infectious and autoimmune diseases).
