Join Leading Researchers in Advancing Immunology
An exceptional opportunity awaits a talented individual to take on a postdoctoral research associate position in the field of Immunology. This position offers a unique chance to work alongside the esteemed Dr. Marc Dalod and Dr. Sandrine Roulland.
Exploring the Complexities of Vertebrate Immunity
Vertebrate resistance to viruses and cancers involves a sophisticated interplay between innate and adaptive immunity mechanisms. Within this intricate system, dendritic cells (DCs) stand out as key orchestrators of immune responses.
Unraveling the Mysteries of Dendritic Cells
Dendritic cells are a diverse group of cells with specialized functions. While conventional type 1 dendritic cells (cDC1s) have been shown to be vital in antiviral and antitumor immunity in mice, plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) also play significant roles in immune defense.
Innovative Research Approach
To overcome technical challenges in studying human dendritic cells, the successful candidate will pioneer a new genetic and pharmacological screening method. This innovative approach will leverage the expertise of both Dr. Dalod and Dr. Roulland to advance our understanding of human immune cells.
Join a Vibrant Research Community
The research will take place at the prestigious CIML located on the Luminy campus, a hub of cutting-edge research in various life sciences and related disciplines. The institute fosters collaboration among experts from diverse fields to unravel the complexities of living systems.
To apply for this exciting opportunity, interested candidates are encouraged to submit their application to [email protected] and [email protected]. The application should include a curriculum vitae, list of publications, research projects description, contact details of referees, and a motivation letter. The deadline for applications is January 31, 2024.
