A postdoctoral opportunity to study myeloid cell biology and its implications for immunotherapy is available to join the laboratory of Dr. Eynav Klechevsky at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. The Klechevsky lab is dedicated to understanding how dendritic cells and other myeloid cells influence the development of immunity and cancer. Our broad and multidisciplinary approach, spanning basic biology and translational medicine using mouse models and patient samples, tackles complex questions with profound implications for human health. Projects are available to decipher the molecular regulation of dendritic cell subsets, function, and differentiation using novel approaches, such as CRISPR/Cas9, single-cell and tissue analyses. The work will contribute to our overall goal of advancing novel immunotherapy strategies for cancer and inflammatory disease. A background on our research can be found by reading some of our recent papers at sites.wustl/klechevskylab/. Information on being a postdoc at Washington University in St. Louis can be found at postdoc.wustl/prospective-postdocs-2/.
