STAFF SCIENTIST (Bioinformatics) – Paust Lab

Sep 1, 2022

Job Category: Research Staff

Requisition Number: STAFF001066

Schedule: Full TimeCA Campus
San Diego, CA, USA

A staff scientist position is available in the Paust lab at TSRI to perform NIH-funded research on NK cell receptor diversity, immunological memory, and NK cell responses to HIV. Recent discoveries by the Paust laboratory and others indicate that subsets of human NK cells mediate adaptive immunity to HIV-encoded antigens; however, NK cell receptor repertoires diversify throughout life, and high NK cell receptor repertoire diversity is associated with increased risk of HIV acquisition. These data present a challenge for vaccine design, as both protective NK cell-mediated memory responses and potentially harmful NK cell receptor repertoire diversifications are consequences of antigen exposures.
