Postdoctoral Research Associate - Immunology

Location: Memphis, TN

Job Description

Immunology postdoctoral positions are available in Dr. Hongbo Chi's laboratory at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The lab investigates immunobiology, metabolic regulation, and cancer immunology, focusing on metabolic regulation of the immune system and therapeutic impacts on cancer and other diseases. We are particularly interested in metabolic programs (e.g., amino acid and lipid metabolism), signaling pathways (e.g., mTOR and nutrient signaling), and systems-level regulatory networks that regulate basic T cell and dendritic cell biology and antitumor immunity. We apply interdisciplinary strategies by integrating immunological and genetic approaches with cutting‑edge systems immunology and functional genomics tools, including CRISPR screening, single‑cell transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and network reconstruction.

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital offers an exceptional research and training environment with state‑of‑the‑art facilities, competitive salaries, and excellent benefits for postdoctoral fellows.

Qualifications

• Recent Ph.D. in immunology or cell biology.
• Minimum one first-author publication in a peer-reviewed journal.
