美国科罗拉多大学丹佛分校博士后职位–医学-肾脏疾病和高血压科
Job Summary:
This Postdoctoral Fellow position reports directly to a Principal Investigator in the Division of Renal Diseases and Hypertension. The overarching goal of our laboratory is to study the immunologic basis of kidney disease, and to develop novel therapies and diagnostic tools for treating patients with these diseases. The laboratory uses various immuno-assays to analyze samples from kidney disease patients. We also develop novel reagents and methods for measuring and blocking immune mediators. In parallel, the lab uses animal models, cell culture systems, and multiplexed tissue imaging methods to explore mechanisms of disease.
The position will entail experiments to analyze patient samples using various ELISAs, in vitro protein analyses, and flow cytometric methods. Results will be correlated with clinical data.
Key Responsibilities:
- ELISAs, Western Blots, and other immunoassays
- Flow cytometry
- Cell culture and sterile technique
- Recombinant protein production and purification
- Careful and accurate recording of experimental results
- Drafting of manuscripts that result from these studies, and presentation of the results at conferences and meetings
Why Join Us:
The Division of Renal Diseases and Hypertension has a longstanding international reputation for excellence in research. Our laboratory has explored the immunologic mechanisms for more than 20 years. We have published our findings in top biomedical journals and presented the results at national and international meetings.
Previous alumni of the lab have gone on to matriculate at medical or graduate school, secured independent academic positions, and taken jobs in industry and private practice.
