Postdoctoral Research Associate Position in Mucosal Immunology

　　The Newberry laboratory at Washington University School of Medicine in Saint Louis Missouri, USA (http://dbbs.wustl.edu/faculty/Pages/faculty_bio.aspx?SID=6055) is seeking to hire postdoctoral research associates. These postdoctoral positions will lead basic discovery research studies in the intestinal immune system. Techniques used in these studies include in vivo two photon imaging, multi-parameter flow cytometry and flow cytometric cell sorting, single cell RNAsequencing, ex vivo cellular assays, and multiple animal models. This is a unique opportunity to be trained in a wide array of techniques in a growing area of mucosal immunology, which can serve as a platform for a career as an independent investigator or a lead investigator in industry.
