Postdoctoral Research Fellow Positions In Virology and Immunology
EMPLOYER: Laboratory of Dr. Zongdi Feng, Center for Vaccines and Immunity at Nationwide Children's Hospital (NCH) and The Ohio State University.
LOCATION: Columbus, Ohio, USA
SALARY: Based on NIH Post-doctoral stipend guidelines, benefits include family health insurance, matched retirement account
POSITION TYPE: Full-time
DISCIPLINE: Virology, cell biology, biochemistry, immunology, virus-host interactions
ORGANIZATION TYPE: Non-profit
Job description:
Multiple Postdoctoral Research Fellow positions are available at The Ohio State University/Nationwide Children's Hospital (Columbus, OH) to study virus-host interactions. Hepatitis E virus (HEV) causes both acute and persistent infections in humans resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. HEV has a unique life cycle: it is shed in the feces as naked virions but exists in the bloodstream as 'quasi-enveloped' particles that are infectious but not recognizable by circulating HEV-specific antibodies (Nat Rev Microbiol. 2023. PMID: 37185947).
The first project investigates how quasi-enveloped HEV particles are generated and how they infect new cells. For this project, a strong background in virology and cell biology is required. A second project investigates the role of a recently discovered capsid decoy in HEV life cycle and immunity (PNAS. 2018. PMID: 29669922; Hepatology. 2023. PMID: 37185268). For this project, candidates with experiences in structural biology or immunology will be preferably considered. Experiences in RNA biology or bioinformatics are not required but will be considered a plus.
Responsibilities:
The successful candidate is expected to have excellent technical and communication skills, perform self-directed research, and assist the PI in preparing manuscripts and grant applications.
Minimum requirements:
Candidates must have a PhD or equivalent with strong research experience in molecular biology, virology and cell biology, and basic knowledge in immunology. Competitive salary will be commensurate with experience (NIH recommended salary for postdoctoral fellows). Interested applicants should submit a single PDF file consisting of a CV, a brief description of their research achievements and interests, and the contact information of three references to Dr. Zongdi Feng (Zongdi.Feng@nationwidechildrens.org).
We can offer potential candidates:
* Up to 5 years of salary and project support
* Substantial financial support to develop new ideas
* Strong mentorship to support career development toward academia or industry jobs
* State-of-the-art laboratories and core facilities
* Affiliation with The Ohio State University College of Medicine
* Collaborative initiatives with clinical faculty
