The Freed-Pastor Laboratory at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School is seeking a postdoctoral research fellow to investigate how pancreatic cancer escapes immune eradication and to support the development of novel therapies for pancreatic cancer patients. The research environment combines translational tumor immunology with advanced experimental and genomic technologies. The lab uses immunopeptidomics, T-cell engineering, single-cell transcriptomics, spatial transcriptomics, a...

This PhD project explores how systemic inflammation during sepsis can alter brain function through glial activation and changes in monoamine metabolism. The work is centered on a neurobiological mechanism linking neuroinflammation, the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), and the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase UGT1A6a in astrocytes. The advertised research builds on preliminary evidence that glial cells can glucuronidate morphine, that LPS increases this activity in vitro and in vivo, and that this eff...

This PhD project, STILANTIBIO (“How Do Plant Polyphenolic Stilbenoids Act as Antimicrobial Agents?”), explores how plant-derived stilbenoids act against microbes through a combined approach in chemistry, chemical biology, microbiology, and bioinformatics. The doctoral research is part of a collaborative programme with the Institut de Chimie & Biologie des Membranes et des Nano-objets (CBMN) and the Centre de BioInformatique de Bordeaux (CBiB) . The student will work on the design and synthesis o...
