Johns Hopkins Fellowship In Vascular and Cardiac Immunology

JOHNS HOPKINS FELLOWSHIP IN VASCULAR AND CARDIAC IMMUNOLOGY.

Employer      Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine

PI                  Roger A. Johns MD, PhD

Location       The laboratory is located in the medical campus of Johns      Hopkins University.

Discipline      Vascular Biology/Immunology

Position Type    Full Time

Job Type        Postdoctoral Fellow

Salary          Open

POSTDOCTORAL POSITION available to study the role of inflammation in vascular and cardiac remodeling. The group focuses on the immunoregulation and immunotherapy of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases and other lung inflammation-related pathology with a special interest in pulmonary hypertension, vascular and cardiac remodeling. The role of the resistin family of protein cytokines, the NLRP3 inflammasome and their downstream pathways are actively being pursued at multiple levels including cell and molecular biology, pathophysiology, biomarker and development of therapeutics. Critical skills include a strong technical expertise in cell biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, and imaging, in the context of vascular and immunobiology. Highly motivated PhDs with a strong publication record are encouraged to apply. A strong background in immunology is sought.
