POSTDOCTORAL POSITION available to
investigate host-pathogen interactions during infection with the protozoan
parasite Toxoplasma gondii. Related
to the malaria parasite, Toxoplasma causes
birth defects and life-threatening infection in immunocompromised AIDS or heart
transplant patients. The successful candidate will investigate proteome-wide
changes taking place in the host cell during infection and employ state of the
art genetic and biochemical approaches to make the host cell less hospitable
for intracellular parasites.
Position
requires a Ph.D., expertise in biochemistry & cell biology, and excellent
communication skills (speaking and writing English). Experience in host-pathogen
interactions and/or bioinformatics is a plus. Submit CV and contact information
for three references to Dr. Bill Sullivan (wjsulliv@iupui.edu).
