Job description

Overview

Position Title: Postdoctoral Associate, Microbiology and Immunology

We are looking for a motivated postdoctoral associate to pursue a Cystic Fibrosis Foundation / NIH-funded study focusing on the role of bacterial-mediated mucus degradation in the progression of cystic fibrosis lung disease. This translational effort will leverage cutting-edge stable isotope probing and proteomic technologies, genomics and microbiome analysis, imaging, epithelial cell culture, and animal models of airway disease to probe in vivo bacterial activity and their interactions with the host epithelium. The ideal candidate will have a PhD in microbiology, biochemistry, or related field, demonstrated research productivity, and expertise in any of the following areas: microbial genetics, physiology & metabolism, analytical biochemistry (FPLC / HPLC / LC-MS/MS), animal infection models, multi-omic approaches and data analysis, and/or anaerobic bacterial culture.
