About this position
The Laboratory of Molecular Biology of Pathogens (LBMP) at the Federal University of São Paulo (Unifesp) is offering a doctoral research opportunity beginning in 2027.
The project will examine how RNA modifications—including m6A, m5C and pseudouridine—shape the interaction between Leishmania parasites and macrophages. The research will investigate how epitranscriptomic regulation influences host immune responses and parasite infection, contributing to a deeper understanding of host–parasite biology.
The project is suited to researchers interested in molecular biology, immunology, parasitology, infection biology and RNA biology. The LBMP provides a research environment focused on the molecular biology of pathogens and mechanisms underlying host–parasite interactions.
