A *post-doctoral position* is available to study the molecular mechanism for self vs. non-self discrimination by the innate immune system. We use a combination of X-ray crystallography, biochemistry and cell biology to characterize structures and functions of key host molecules that recognize foreign molecules, in particular viral nucleic acids.
Applicants should have received (or expect to receive) a PhD and have a strong background in X-ray crystallography, biochemistry, cellular immunology or virology. Please send a cover letter, CV, names, e-mail addresses and telephone numbers of three references to Sun Hur at [email protected] Please refer to http://hurlab.tch.harvard.edu/ and http://hurlab.tch.harvard.edu/publications/ to learn more about our research.
