Job Description The Duke Human Vaccine Institute and the Center for HIV/AIDS Vaccine Immunology and Immunogen Discovery (CHAVI-ID), providing national and international leadership in the fight against major infectious diseases, is currently recruiting for Postdoctoral Associates.
Duke University and the Duke Human Vaccine Institute, under the direction of Dr. Barton Haynes, have been awarded a new grant, the Duke Center for HIV/AIDS Vaccine Immunology-Immunogen Discovery grant, to overcome roadblocks that hinder the development of a vaccine for HIV, and to design and develop immunogens for a successful vaccine. As a result of this 7 year, $139 million grant, the Duke Human Vaccine Institute is currently recruiting for postdoctoral associates to participate in this work.
Projects will include study of the B cell response to HIV envelope proteins in non-human primates and in human vaccinees, study of B cell regulation in humanized mice, study of B cell development in rhesus macaques and humans, and studies of the role of factors that regulate T follicular helper cell generation by immunogens. In addition the regulation of somatic hypermutation and class switching of immunoglobulins will be of prime interest.
The education, expertise, initiative and dedication of the postdoctoral associates engaged in this project will be important to the success of the studies. This fellowship will be an opportunity to become part of a winning team that is working to discover novel ways to prevent HIV infection and therefore protect people world-wide. Qualified candidates must have a Ph.D. in virology, immunology, molecular biology, computational biology or related disciplines.
Candidates should send a cover letter and current curriculum vitae to:
Duke Human Vaccine Institute
