The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center
Postdoctoral Researcher – Host-Pathogen Interactions and B cell immunity
The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, San Diego, California, United States, 92189
Postdoctoral Researcher – Host‑Pathogen Interactions and B Cell Immunity
Job Number: 108341
Location: San Diego, US
Postdoctoral Position – Host‑Pathogen Interactions, B Cell Immunity & Molecular Virology Location: University of California, San Diego (Department of Pathology)
Start date: Flexible, 2025
The Raju Lab at UC San Diego seeks a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to investigate how viruses engage the mammalian immune system. Our group studies
host–pathogen interactions ,
B cell immunity , and
viral entry mechanisms
using emerging RNA viruses as model systems.
Projects integrate
molecular virology ,
immunology , and
structural biology
to define viral determinants of host range, dissect B cell and antibody responses, and map virus–receptor or virus–antibody interfaces. Approaches include reverse genetics, reporter virus systems, high‑dimensional flow cytometry, single‑cell and repertoire sequencing, and cryo‑EM collaborations.
Qualifications:
Ph.D. (or equivalent) in Virology, Immunology, or related field.
Experience with molecular cloning, cell culture, or immunologic assays.
Strong record of productivity and enthusiasm for mechanistic science.
Environment: UCSD offers exceptional resources for molecular virology and immunology, with access to BSL‑2 facilities, Cytek spectral flow cytometry, structural biology, and proteomics cores. The lab emphasizes rigorous, creative, and collaborative science with individualized mentorship and career development.
To Apply: Send a single PDF with (1) CV, (2) brief statement of research interests and goals, and (3) contact information for three references to
saraju at ucsd dot edu . Applications reviewed on a rolling basis.
Equal Opportunity: UC San Diego is an AA/EOE. We value diversity and encourage applicants from all backgrounds.
