Research Lab Tech I BWH Rheumatology

4 months ago

Boston, Massachusetts, United States Brigham & Women's Hospital(BWH) Full time
This position in the laboratory of Michael Brenner, MD, who is world renowned for his contributions to immunology and arthritis biology, offers the opportunity to join a dynamic group studying inflammation and autoimmunity, with a particular focus on rheumatoid arthritis. Some important advances in the field driven by Dr. Brenner's research group include the discovery of a unique population of T cells that is dramatically expanded in the joints of rheumatoid arthritis patients, published in the journal Nature, as well as the identification of distinct fibroblast populations within joint tissue of rheumatoid arthritis patients, reported in Nature Communications. This research group seeks to continue to advance our understanding of arthritis through "disease deconstruction," in which we study the function of cells from patients, including T cells, macrophages, and fibroblasts. These functions are evaluated through a combination of analytical methods, including single cell RNA-sequencing, bulk RNA-seq, flow cytometry, along with in vitro functional studies and animal models. The detailed analyses of tissues from patient samples are carried out in close collaboration with the BWH Human Immunology Center and Single Cell Genomics Core.
