    Description
    9420 Athena Cir, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA Req #326

    The Einav lab at the La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI) is looking for a staff scientist to develop models that harness and augment our antibody response against viruses.

    Our lab is 100% computational, although we collaborate closely with experimentalists in San Diego and abroad to develop more effective vaccines and treatments.

    Immunology is now a data-rich discipline, and the main limitation of modeling efforts is in where and how creatively we apply them.

    This is where art meets science.

    We develop tools that combine machine learning and biophysics to predict which vaccine will elicit the strongest, broadest, and longest-lasting response in each person.


    Qualifications include :

    PhD in any quantitative science (such as physics, computer science, statistics, etc.), a PhD in the life sciences with a strong computational/quantitative background, or equivalent expertise from multi-year hands-on experience in these areas.

    You will acquire any missing domain/biological knowledge with us
    At least three years of postdoctoral experience or equivalent (we support alternative career paths)
    Strong analytical, programming, or machine learning skills are especially valued
    Experience with immunology or virology is valued but not required
    Excellent communication and organizational skills
    A record of multiple publications


    To Apply:
    Interested applicants please submit the followingin a single attachment:
    1. A cover letter describing your background and interest in the position
    2. Y our CV
    3. C ontact information for three references
