Position description
The Epeldegui lab, which is in the UCLA AIDS Institute, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA seeks a Post-Doctoral Scholar for a multiple year research appointment. The NIH grant funded position will work under the director of Marta Epeldegui, Ph.D., M.S., Associate Professor-in-Residence.
Dr. Epeldegui’s research focuses in the role of immune dysfunction and cancer, especially AIDS-associated B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (ARL). ARL remains a significant problem even in the era of combination anti-retroviral treatment (cART). Her research work and others have shown that B cell activation and microbial translocation precede the development of ARL, with elevated levels of biomarkers associated with B cell activation and microbial translocation seen prior to ARL diagnosis. Moreover, biomarkers of inflammation, B cell activation and microbial translocation are also associated with cancer prognosis. Her laboratory studies how inflammation, microbial translocation, viral infections and other events may lead to lymphomagenesis and pathogenesis of ARL.
Applicants must possess a Ph.D., M.D. or M.D./Ph.D. degree to apply. Qualified applicants can include graduate students in their last year of work toward a Ph.D. degree, who have successfully defended their thesis, or applicants who are in the first year of a postdoctoral appointment. Candidates are expected to have a strong background in immunology, molecular and cell biology and have experience with flow cytometry. The ideal candidate should be highly motivated and have publications in peer-reviewed journals.
