USA: Post Doc position to study autoimmunity at University of North Carolina

A post-doctoral position is open for an energetic, highly motivated Ph.D., M.D., or D.V.M. scientist in a NIH-funded startup laboratory at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Our laboratory is interested in studying the genetics of autoimmunity in both humans and animal models. In particular, we are interested in studying the role of the Autoimmune Regulator (Aire) gene in preventing organ-specific autoimmunity. Our highly translational laboratory is affiliated with the Departments of Microbiology/Immunology and Pediatrics, which allows for ample opportunity to bridge the bench and bedside. Experience in immunology, genetics, molecular biology and history of productivity is required.
