Postdoctoral Fellowship in Immunology

A IMMUNOLOGY POSTDOCTORAL POSITION in Philadelphia is available in the lab of David Wiest at Fox Chase Cancer Center. The Wiest lab has a longstanding history of investigation into the molecular mechanisms controling lymphoid development and transformation. We have an immediate opening for a postdoctoral fellowship position studying the molecular control of gd T cell lineage commitment and effector fate, and its implications for gd T cells in the immunotherapy of cancer. In pursuing this research, we focus on the role of lncRNA, using genome wide appoaches. The successful applicant will learn not only how to perform wet “omic” analysis, but also how to perform the bioinformatic analysis necessary to maximally benefit from these approaches. Experience with mouse models of cancer is advantageous. Fox Chase is located in a safe suburban neighorhood with easy access to the city.
