Irvine, California, United States University Of California Irvine Full time
Research Opportunities

Dr. Thomas Lane, Chancellor's Professor and Director of the Center for Virus Research at the University of California, Irvine, is seeking two highly motivated postdoctoral researchers to join his team. The position is funded by the NIH and the Alzheimer's Association, and research projects will focus on examining how infection of susceptible mice with coronaviruses impacts neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, and neurologic function.

Research Focus

The successful candidates will have the opportunity to work on two exciting research projects:

  1. Exploring how infection of novel transgenic mouse models of Alzheimer's disease impacts the severity of neuropathology in response to intranasal infection with SARS-CoV-2 and identifying potential mechanisms by which this occurs.
  2. Identifying novel pathways contributing to both demyelination and remyelination in response to infection of susceptible mice with the neuroadapted JHM strain of mouse hepatitis virus (JHMV).


Qualifications

The ideal candidates will have a strong background in molecular and cellular biology, a Ph.D. in a relevant field, and excellent research skills. They will also have a strong track record of publishing research in top-tier journals and presenting at international conferences. The University of California, Irvine is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer advancing inclusive excellence. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, age, protected veteran status, or other protected categories covered by the UC anti-discrimination policy.

Benefits

The position offers a comprehensive benefits package, including health insurance, retirement savings, and paid time off. The salary is based on the UC academic salary scale for postdocs commensurate with experience. Start date is flexible, and initial appointment is for 2 years at 100% time. Continuation will be based on performance and availability of funding.
