Postdoctoral Scientist/Research Associate - San Antonio, United States - Texas Biomedical Research Institute
Description
Job TypeFull-time
Description
Job type:
A Full-Time Postdoctoral Scientist or Research Associate to study metabolite-protein interactions
Scientific Roles:
Our multidisciplinary laboratory integrates the knowledge and technology of immunology, chemical biology, molecular microbiology, bioinformatic analyses of gene, lipid, and metabolite profiles, and animal studies to discover metabolite and lipid compounds for unconventional T cell activation to fight infections and cancers. Our current projects focus on (i) identifying Mycobacterium tuberculosis metabolites to activate mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells, (ii) determining MAIT cell clones that elicit protective responses against tuberculosis, (iii) characterizing differential metabolite antigen presentation pathways for MAIT cell activation in bacterial infections, and (iv) identifying mammalian and microbial metabolites as T cell antigens or protein ligands to regulate immunity in infections, cancers, and inflammations. We value self-motivated research and carefully designed assays because these virtues will help build up confidence and experience in scientific life.
Laboratory and intellectual duties or activities:
(1) Resume or CV
(2) A cover letter addressed to Dr. Shouxiong Huang
