About this position

Postdoctoral Position in Infectious Diseases at the David Geffen School of Medicine, UCLA. The Division of Infectious Diseases in the Department of Medicine is seeking a full-time postdoctoral researcher to join the Kim Lab and contribute to studies of HIV reservoirs and curative therapies.

The project focuses on research using humanized mouse models to investigate HIV persistence and possible cure strategies. The successful candidate will work in an infectious disease and translational research environment that combines animal models, biospecimens, and molecular and cellular assays. The role is centered on experimental laboratory research in a medical school setting, with work involving BSL-2+ HIV materials and biospecimens.

The position references the shared values of the David Geffen School of Medicine and links to the UCLA Cultural North Star, indicating a broader institutional commitment to research, integrity, and community values within the training environment.

  • Research on HIV reservoirs and curative therapies
  • Humanized mouse model work
  • Experimental methods including flow cytometry, qRT-PCR, cell culture, bacterial culture, and tissue processing
  • Opportunity to contribute to infectious disease research at UCLA

The advertisement emphasizes a research-focused postdoctoral appointment within a major U.S. public research university and its medical school.

Funding details

Full-time postdoctoral position with salary range estimated at $69,073-$82,836 per year.

What's required

A Ph.D. is required. Preferred experience includes multi-color flow cytometry and/or mass cytometry, sterile cell culture with BSL-2+ practices, qRT-PCR, sterile bacterial culture, and animal dissection and tissue processing. Bioinformatics knowledge is preferred but not required. The candidate must be comfortable working with BSL2+ biospecimens with HIV.

How to apply

Submit the application through the UCLA recruitment portal using the provided application link. Include a current CV, cover letter, a statement of research, and contact information for three professional references. Apply by the review date for full consideration.
