Postdoctoral Fellowship in Mucosal Immunity & Microbiome @ UC San Diego School of Medicine

July 4, 2019
The Chu laboratory at UC San Diego School of Medicine studies the complex interactions between the trillions of diverse microbes and the host in the mammalian gastrointestinal tract.
 
We are focused on the fundamental role of commensal microbiota in the education, induction, and maintenance of the host immune system during health and disease. Our research is centered at the interface of microbiome and immunology, with the goal of mechanistically understanding the role of the microbiome in preventing and treating immune-mediated diseases such as...

June 13, 2019
The Zarif laboratory at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine is seeking a
Postdoctoral Fellow to investigate the targeting of immune cells as a mechanism to
enhance immunotherapy responses in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
This funded position will involve studies of prostate cancer immunology and cancer
metabolism with an emphasis on understanding how to improve anti-tumor immunity for
metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The position will involve the use of
... Read more about Postdoctoral Fellowship in Immunology @ Zarif Lab, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine

Postdoctoral Position

Brain Metastasis Group

The Brain Metastasis Group (www.valientelab.com) is an EMBO YIP laboratory part
of the Molecular Oncology Programme at CNIO (www.cnio.es). The lab studies the
biology of secondary brain tumors using mouse models and human samples. Given
our unique background we can apply an interdisciplinary approach to interrogate the
brain metastasis microenvironment and to exploit it...

Postdoctoral Fellowship on Clathrin-Coated Plaques @ Boulant Lab, Heidelberg University Hospital

Role of clathrin-coated plaques in regulating cell migration

 
Clathrin is a unique scaffold protein, which forms polyhedral cages at the plasma membrane assembling into flat and curved lattices. The function of the curved clathrin-coated pits in forming endocytic structures is well studied. However, the functions of the large flat clathrin arrays (a.k.a. clathrin-coated plaques) remain elusive. We have recently identified the origin and started to elucidate the function of plaques during cell migration. We propose that clathrin-coated plaques may act...
