Employment Type | Regular Full-Time | Requisition number | 1837 | Department | Ray Lab | Location : City | Seattle |
Overview
The Ray Lab at Benaroya Research Institute (BRI) is seeking a highly-motivated Postdoctoral Research Associate. The Ray lab studies how human genetic variation and epigenetic states of immune cells alter susceptibility to autoimmune diseases. The lab performs large-scale genomic experiments using CRISPR-mediated silencing of active regions of the genome, DNA base editing, massively parallel reporter assays, and other methodologies to find regions of the genome that promote risk for disease.
Postdoctoral Fellowships are now available in the Ray lab in the Systems Immunology Division at Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI).
Come join our team in Seattle, and learn to apply cutting edge approaches to the understand the mechanisms of autoimmune disease and find new therapies.
Responsibilities
Potential projects in the Ray Lab may focus on:
* The mechanisms of disease-associated genetic variants using massively parallel perturbations and base editing approaches in human cells.
* The chromatin states in human T cell subsets in the context of autoimmune diseases.
* Identifying regulatory regions important to T cell function in mice and humans.
Systems Immunology involves interdisciplinary teams, involving both core facilities and the laboratories of multiple Principal Investigators (PIs), including Dr. Peter S. Linsley, Dr. Hamid Bolouri, and Dr. John Ray. Our website has more information on our core facilities and PIs.
Qualifications
We are seeking enthusiastic, highly motivated yet team-oriented individuals with an aptitude for learning and a desire to improve human health. The individuals we are seeking will hold doctoral degrees in modern experimental immunology, mathematics, statistics and/or bioinformatics. Experience in experimental science, genomics, sequence analysis, data modeling and visualization, and statistics is desirable, but not essential, as training opportunities will be provided.
If this description fits you, please consider joining our team of Systems Immunologists, and become trained in the application of Systems Immunology approaches to Immunology and Autoimmune diseases.
Compensation
