About this position

The Tse Lab at Saint Louis University School of Medicine is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for work on one or both of two virology projects. The lab focuses on pressing questions in viral disease biology and translational research, offering a position centered on both fundamental mechanisms and applied biomedical goals.

One project investigates coronavirus pathogenesis and transmission across zoonotic, enzootic, and pandemic contexts. The research aims to uncover the molecular mechanisms by which host factors and viral determinants enhance coronavirus zoonosis. A second project aims to develop a safe and efficacious dengue virus vaccine for naïve children in endemic areas, with attention to how vaccine protection correlates with antibody enhancement and how unwanted or unsafe epitopes can be removed through viral engineering.

The role is based in the Tse Lab at Saint Louis University, a Jesuit Catholic research university in St. Louis, Missouri. The lab describes an environment of scientific freedom within the scope of the group and indicates that the postdoc may gain broader professional experience through involvement in grant writing, peer reviewing, laboratory management, and administration, in addition to research activities.

The position is explicitly research-focused and spans molecular virology, coronavirus biology, dengue vaccine design, structural and evolutionary analysis of viral antigens, and in vivo small animal work.

What's required

A PhD in a virology-related field is required, along with a strong publication record. Applicants should be self-motivated, able to work independently, and have data analysis skills, troubleshooting ability, and excellent written and verbal communication skills. For Project I, traditional molecular virology skills are required and BSL3 training is needed, with previous BSL3 experience preferred. For Project II, research skills in structural virology, engineering, and evolution of viral antigens are required, and small animal work is necessary.
