PhD in Defining Neuro-Immune Circuits in Viral Infection Medical Research Council (Cambridge) Laboratory of Molecular Biology in United Kingdom

Washington University in St. Louis is hiring a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Pathology & Immunology to work in the laboratory of Dr Aydan Szeto on the biology of type-2 immunity . The project focuses on discovering new pathways regulating ILC2 and Th2 cell function, building on recent work using CRISPR screens and a novel “Boolean mouse” model. This is an on-campus/onsite, full-time postdoctoral position at the Washington University Medical Campus in St. Louis, Missouri, U...

PhD opportunity at Cardiff University in placental function, fetal programming, transcriptomics, imaging, and bioinformatics , with a focus on Prader–Willi syndrome and how placental abnormalities may alter development of the fetal brain. This interdisciplinary project is based at Cardiff School of Medicine and is designed to give the successful student hands-on experience in preclinical lab-based methods , bioinformatic analysis , and data handling . The topic sits at the intersection of medica...

PhD opportunity at the University of Cambridge in the Department of Clinical Neurosciences on cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD) , with a focus on identifying shared mechanisms and therapeutic targets across genetic and sporadic disease forms. The project will use patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) models to study vascular cell phenotypes in the neurovascular unit. The research combines cellular biology , molecular biology , functional assays , and transcriptomics/omics to un...

Umeå University in Sweden is advertising a postdoctoral position in the Department of Molecular Biology for a project titled “The role of exported proteins during malaria infection.” The research focuses on malaria parasite biology , especially how Plasmodium exported proteins contribute to host cell invasion, proliferation, nutrient uptake, waste excretion, adhesion, and organ sequestration. The project uses the genetically tractable mouse malaria model Plasmodium berghei and will also follow u...

PhD opportunity at Cardiff University in immune ageing, T-cells, protective immunity, vaccine design, and T-cell therapies . This funded project asks why T-cell responses to infection become less effective with age and how that knowledge can inform future vaccines and immunotherapies. The work is based at Cardiff University, Cardiff School of Medicine , and will involve engineered protein technology, advanced imaging platforms (including a FACSDiscover S8 with CellViewTM), transcriptomics, telom...
