I appreciated very much your help in posting the following postdoctoral position announcement in the cytometry list and the Purdue site. Regards Rafael Rafael Nunez M.D. Associate Laboratory Member-Immunology Program Manager Flow Cytometry Core Facility Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center Box 98, 1275 York Avenue New York, NY 10021 Telephone (212) 639-6392 Fax (917) 432-2333 E-mail: nunezr@mskcc.org www.mskcc.org The Immunology program of The Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and the Flow Cytometry Core Facility has created a postdoctoral position for studying by flow cytometry some of the most characteristic features of the dendritic cells' biology. The main goal of this research program is to develop new technologies in the flow cytometry field. Furthermore, the new flow technologies will provide the ground for developing methods and models for evaluating the biology of immune cells and cancer cells. The initial model and technologies will be focused on studying by flow cytometry some of the most characteristic features of the dendritic cells' biology like (i) identification of new surface markers; (ii) defining the stages and elements involved in take up, processing of antigen and antigen presentation; (iii) defining the interactions between dendritic cells and effector cells like CD4 or CD8 T cells, (iv) defining the interactions between dendritic cells and cancer cells, (v) development of models for cellular vaccination based on dendritic cells. Moreover, all the new flow cytometry technologies will be developed keeping in mind further applications in cell biology and biology of the cancer cells as well as with great emphasis in its future translation into medical applications and care of the patient with cancer. Candidates should have Ph.D. and/or M.D. degree and a strong background in molecular biology and cell biology. Experience in Innate Immunity or host-pathogen interactions is desirable. Interested candidates should send their curriculum vitae and list of publications, and names of three references to the email address or fax number listed above. -- Rafael Nunez M.D. Associate Laboratory Member-Immunology Program Manager Flow Cytometry Core Facility Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center Box 98, 1275 York Avenue New York, NY 10021 Telephone (212) 639-6392 Fax (917) 432-2333 E-mail: nunezr@mskcc.org
