Department of Gene and Cell Medicine
Employment OpportunitiesPostdoctoral Position: Immune ToleranceWork on immune tolerance in tumor immune therapy and autoimmune disease models. Previous experience in immunology and cellular and molecular biology, e.g. microarray or siRNA, is highly favorable. Candidates should be career orientated, motivated and possess good communication skills. Mount Sinai School of Medicine provides state-of-the-art facility, competitive salary and benefit. Submission InformationPlease send CV to: Postdoctoral Position: Gene Therapy VectorOur department is engaged in a collaborative program to develop adeno-associated virus as a gene therapy vector. As part of these efforts our lab actively pursues the development of new approaches to target AAV to specific cell types, in particular stem cells. In addition, we work on elucidating the basic cell biology of adeno-associated virus. Specifically, we explore questions regarding the intracellular trafficking of AAV during viral entry. To complement our team we are currently looking for a postdoctoral fellow with a strong background in Virology and Cell Biology. Experience in the field of parvovirus research is a plus. The Department of Gene and Cell Medicine of Mount Sinai School of Medicine is located in Manhattan one block away from Central Park and is a highly competitive and interdisciplinary department that provides unique opportunities for the successful development of a scientific career.

Applicants will extensively use molecular assays, confocal microscopy, multicolor flow cytometry, and standard cellular immune assays, along with the availability of many unique strains of genetically altered mice, as part of the core facilities, competencies and techniques for this project. Submission InformationJonathan S. Bromberg, M.D., Ph.D. Postdoctoral Position: Molecular and Cellular Transplant Immunology LaboratoryPostdoctoral position is available immediately to study cancer immune modulated gene therapy. Specifically, we are studying dendritic cell activation and T cell immune tolerance. Applicants should possess a solid knowledge of immunology and some background of molecular and cellular biology techniques. Special consideration will be given to candidates with background and experiences in immunological research, small animal surgical techniques or signal transduction. The Department Gene and Cell Medicine offers state-of-the-art of core facilities in a highly stimulating environment. Submission InformationMotivated individuals with a recent Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. should send curriculum vitae, brief description of research interests and experience, and the names of three references to: Stem Cell BiologistAn established and well-equipped laboratory, located in a modern research tower in New York City, is seeking a rigorous and self-motivated Research Associate/Post-doctoral Fellow to pursue exciting research in murine and human embryonic stem cell biology with an emphasis on gene transfer and endoderm development. Murine and human embryonic stem cell cultures are already established in the multi-departmental Stem Cell Center at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine and there will be plenty of interactive possibilities with other active research programs in the School. Competitive salary and benefits will be offered. Submission InformationApplicants should submit an updated CV and Bibliography, with names and e-mail addresses of three references to: |
