JOB REQUIREMENTS: Position Description: Every great life-changing
discovery begins the same way-with new knowledge. It can change
everything, from a single life to the future of entire communities.
That\'s why academic medicine, and the continuous pursuit of knowledge,
is at the center of everything we do at the Medical College of Wisconsin
(MCW). In the role of Research Associate I you will, under minimal
supervision, use fundamental concepts, practices, and procedures of
particular field of specialization to perform complex scientific
research. This role will be in the laboratory of Dr. William Drobyski in
the Departments of Medicine and Microbiology at the Medical College of
Wisconsin that is focused on transplantation immunology with a specific
emphasis on the immunobiology of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation
and the pathophysiology of graft versus host disease (GVHD). Other areas
of interest emanating from this focus include T cell and regulatory T
cell biology along with inflammation induced by innate immune cells
(macrophages, microglia, and dendritic cells). Specific areas of
interest include inflammatory cytokine networks that contribute to GVHD,
inflammatory cytokine signaling and regulatory pathways that impact the
development of tolerance, modulate anti-leukemic responses, and induce
pathological damage particularly within the gastrointestinal tract and
central nervous system using genetically modified mouse models, flow
cytometry, q-PCR, RNA-seq, western blot, single cell RNA seq,
bioinformatics, and other immunological techniques. Recent publications
include Journal of Clinical Investigation 2016; 126: 3541-3555, Blood
2018; 132(4): 435-447, Nature Communications 2018; 9(1): 5037; Blood
2020; 135(8): 568-581, Blood 2021; 137(9): 1241-1255, and Blood Advances
2022; 6(9): 2791-2803. Responsibilities: Perform immunology experiments
from design conception to final data analysis and presentation of
results with minimal supervision. Collect, analyze and provide
summations of data from experiments. Perform all necessary calculations
and reduction of data errors to allow for interpretation of all
experimental outcomes. Prepare scientific papers and assist the
Principal Investigator in the preparations of manuscripts. Perform
molecular biological assays using RT-PCR, real time PCR, Western and
molecular cloning techniques. Adopt new techniques in laboratory.
Coordinate research study activities. Assist in developing, implementing
and monitoring quality activities. Participate in meetings with
principle investigator and research staff and evaluate/interpret the
validity of data, develop methodologies,\... For full info follow
