We are seeking an individual to assist with an NIH sponsored project
to isolate and clone genes that encode immunoprotective antigens from
Coccidioides immitis. One position is available:
Research Specialist I. Preference will be given to candidates with a
Master's degree or a B.S. and 2 years experience and experience with
molecular biology and/or immunology.
We are also seeking individuals to assist with an NIH grant supported
project investigating the developing host immune response to
Coccidioides immitis in a murine model. Studies will utilize
cellular, immunochemical, immunohistochemical, and molecular
techniques to assess the development of the immune response in
genetically susceptible and resistant mouse strains. Two positions
are available:
Micro V. Preference will be given to candidates with a doctoral
degree and experience with animal models of infectious disease, and/or
assays of cell-mediated immunity, and/or molecular biology approaches
to evaluating immune responses.
Research Specialist I. Preference will be given to candidates with a
Master's degree or a B.S. and 2 years experience. Experience with
animal models, assays of cell-mediated immunity, or molecular
approaches to evaluating immune responses would be beneficial.
