Postdoctoral or Research Fellow/Staff Scientist Humoral Immune Response to HIV-1 HIV-Specific Immunity Section Laboratory of Immunoregulation National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) National Institutes of Health (NIH) Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Bethesda, MD, USA Mark Connors, M.D., Chief A position is open for the study of the antibody response to HIV. Specific interests of the laboratory include understanding the mechanisms that underlie broad neutralization of HIV and paths to inducing broad and durable antibody responses in humans. The laboratory uses a variety of techniques to understand the basis of a broad and potent HIV-specific response. These include isolation of human monoclonal antibodies and detailed studies of their mechanism of action. Induction of virus-specific antibodies in humans and animals is also an area of primary interest. Studies of molecular structure and antibody evolution are carried out in collaboration with investigators at the Vaccine Research Center. The person selected will work in a very fast moving field, with generous research support, access to cutting-edge facilities, and two post-baccalaureate students. A person selected at the postdoctoral or research fellow level could advance to a staff scientist position. Candidates should have a Ph.D., M.D., or M.D./Ph.D., as well as a strong record of research experience and productivity. Expertise in B-cell immunology, flow cytometry, molecular biology, and bioinformatics would be a plus. [More]

Job Title: Postdoctoral Fellow to study viral evolution and broadly neutralizing antibody responses in HIV infection Salary Plan: NIH and institutional funding Lab: Allen Direct Supervisor: Todd Allen Employing Hospital and Department: Ragon Institute of MGH, MIT, and Harvard Minimum degree and field of knowledge: PhD, MD Years experience required: 0 – 2 years experience Summary: The Ragon Institute of MGH, MIT and Harvard located in Kendall Square in Cambridge, MA has an opening in the Allen laboratory (http://www.ragoninstitute.org/portfolio-item/allen-lab/) for a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to study the role of HIV sequence evolution in the development of broadly neutralizing antibodies. This position requires a Ph.D. or an M.D. with a background in humoral immunity, evolutionary biology, and/or bioinformatics. Research will focus on elucidating the role that viral evolution and escape from humoral immune responses plays in the development and maturation of broadly neutralizing antibodies to HIV. Efforts will include application of next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies to address these questions and development of advanced comparative genomic tools for the analysis of large viral genomic NGS datasets. Goals are to understand the role of HIV sequence evolution in the development of broadly neutralizing antibodies and apply this knowledge to design the effective components of an HIV vaccine. State-of-the-art facilities are available within an exceptionally energetic research setting. Job Duties: Under the direction of the principal investigator the applicant independently carries out daily activities of the laboratory. Performs molecular biology and cell-based assays utilizing standard techniques (DNA/RNA extraction and analysis, standard and quantitative PCR, site-directed mutagenesis, neutralization assays, ELISAs) Next-generation Illumina library construction and sequencing Bioinformatic analysis of conventional bulk and next-generation sequence data Develop advanced comparative genomic tools for the analysis of large viral genomic NGS datasets Detailed documentation of the experimental work [More]
Cures Start Here. At Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, home to three Nobel laureates, interdisciplinary teams of world-renowned scientists seek new and innovative ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer, HIV/AIDS and other life-threatening diseases. Fred Hutch's pioneering work in bone marrow transplantation led to the development of immunotherapy, which harnesses the power of the immune system to treat cancer. An independent, nonprofit research institute based in Seattle, Fred Hutch houses the nation's first and largest cancer prevention research program, as well as the clinical coordinating center of the Women's Health Initiative and the international headquarters of the HIV Vaccine Trials Network. Careers Start Here. The laboratory of Dr. Harlan Robins, Head of Computational Biology, is recruiting two postdoc positions funded by Stand UP 2 Cancer and the V Foundation to study the interaction between the adaptive immune system and cancer. This position will come with a competitive postdoc-level salary with great benefits for a two-year position with some possibility of extension. Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, home of about 190 faculty including three Nobel laureates, is an independent, nonprofit research institution dedicated to the development and advancement of biomedical research. The environment is lively yet casual, with a strong emphasis on collaborative work. The Center is housed in a lovely campus next to Lake Union a short walk from downtown, and a slightly longer walk from the University of Washington. The position will involve technology development, algorithm creation, and applications. Primary research goals will be to develop high-throughput technologies to assess the specific immune response to cancer and to learn how the tumor evades this response and how the response can be resuscitated to effectively fight tumors.
