The Curriculum in Toxicology, University of North Carolina has an
opening for a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship. The research project
involves the study of the expression of Th1 and Th2 responses and their
role in immunotoxicity, particularly with respect to detecting potential
respiratory sensitizers.
The immediate goal is to identify cell surface and intracellular molecules
by flow cytometry or molecular biology techniques following exposure to
known sensitizers. Once protocols have been developed and tested, the
postdoctoral fellow will travel to collaborating laboratories at DuPont
and Dow Chemical to transfer the technology.
The position requires a Ph.D. in Immunology, Biological
Sciences or Toxicology, with experience in flow cytometry and molecular
biology required.
This project is part of a collaborative agreement between the University
of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, which
is collaborating with E.I. DuPont de Nemours & Company and Dow Chemical
Company. EPA policy limits awards to US citizens or permanent
residents.
