Harvard Postdoctoral Fellowship position

We seek an outstanding and highly motivated early-career scientist in the fields of virology, molecular biology, and potentially immunology. The position will involve novel studies of the impact that a first-in-human trispecific broadly neutralizing antibody may have on the HIV-1 reservoir. Qualified candidates will have an opportunity to design research projects that leverage cutting-edge approaches and include integrated multimodal single cell analyses. This postdoctoral fellowship provides a unique opportunity to conduct research with broad scientific and technical impact.

The Tsibris Laboratory studies the biology of HIV latency in the context of human disease. The guiding principle of our work is a cure for HIV. The Tsibris lab is located in Cambridge, MA, an area rich in world-class academic centers, pioneering biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, and a diverse, welcoming, and inclusive community. Postdoctoral Fellows will hold the academic rank of Research Fellow at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School and be provided a competitive salary and benefits. Appointments are anticipated for a minimum of two years, with renewal after the first year contingent upon satisfactory performance.

Applicants must hold a PhD degree, or the equivalent, and have significant expertise in virology, molecular biology, or immunology. The ideal candidate will be motivated to apply their experiences to study the biology of the immune system and retroviral pathogens. Publications in leading journals and completion of a doctoral degree in a relevant scientific field before the start date are required. The start date is flexible.

Interested candidates should email a cover letter, detailed curriculum vitae, and research interests as a single PDF to:
