Applicants with an interest in the cellular/molecular mechanisms underlying the interaction of pathogenic bacteria and viruses with human mucosal surfaces, the host response(s) to infection, and/or the innate immunology of the human mucosal epithelium are encouraged to apply. The successful applicant will study HIV infection, and Neisseria gonorrhoeae-HIV coinfection, of the lower female genital tract as part of a funded grant from the NIH/NIAID.

    • Experience in propagating and enumerating virus
    • Experience in microbiological and immunological assessments (e. g., ELISA, Western Blot, etc.)
    • Working knowledge of mammalian cell signaling and innate (mucosal) immunity
    • Must be able to occasionally work after hours and/or weekends, as needed, for experiments
