Duties and Responsibilities
A postdoctoral position is available immediately for studies on mosquito-borne viral pathogens in the families Flaviviridae and Togaviridae. The focus of these studies will be identification of specific cellular effectors of the innate immune antiviral response and determination of their mechanisms of action and the means by which certain viruses can antagonize and/or evade these effectors. Candidates should have a Ph.D degree and familiarity with molecular and cell biology techniques. Research experience in RNA virology, innate immunology and/or signal transduction and experience working under BSL-3 containment are highly desirable. Candidates must be authorized to work in the US and will be required to obtain Department of Justice security clearance for work with Select Agents and Toxins, as required by Federal regulation.
