The main focus of our research is on the development of a safe, effective and simple-to-use immunologic adjuvant using laser light. The research project will require the use of a combination of approaches ranging from molecular and cellular biology to assessment of mouse models of infectious disease. Experience with flow cytometry, tissue culture, procedures on mice and standard molecular biologic methodologies is desirable. The ideal candidate for this position will be a recent doctoral graduate within the last three years obtaining a PhD or MD/PhD in immunology or a related field. Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English are required. At least one first author publication in international peer-reviewed journal(s) is required.
