We are looking for enthusiastic postdoctoral fellows and graduate students to grow our team. Depending on one’s interests, we have projects spanning lung cancer early detection assays, immunoPET imaging, chimeric antigen receptor T cells, and antibody drug conjugates. Most of our work is completed using unique cohorts of human samples, but we also utilize patient-derived xenografts and genetically engineered mouse models. Other techniques include immunofluorescence microscopy, western blotting, immunohistochemistry, molecular engineering, flow cytometry and microarray piezoelectric printing.
Lab members will be involved all aspects of research, from experimental design to manuscript preparation and publication. A successful candidate must have excellent communication and organizational skills, the ability to develop creative approaches to experimental design, and thrive both in independent and collaborative research. Our lab is committed to maintaining a supportive and inclusive environment and are searching for highly motivated individuals who fit this ethos. In terms of career development, our autoantibody platform is widely applicable to diseases including cancer, autoimmunity, and infectious diseases.
