Postdoctoral Fellow - PF1086P
Join a cutting-edge spatial biology project at UAB.
Best for:Ideal for researchers with a PhD in biological sciences and a focus on immunology.
Overview
The University of Alabama at Birmingham is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow to contribute to a spatial biology project led by Dr. Smith. This role involves investigating the structures and functions of tertiary lymphoid tissues related to autoimmunity, cancer, and infection using both mouse and human samples. The fellow will utilize advanced technologies such as COMET multiplex immunofluorescence and XENIUM spatial transcriptomics, while collaborating with the spatial bioinformatics team to develop bioinformatic pipelines. Candidates are expected to have a strong background in biological sciences and immunology.
