One Research Fellow (postdoctoral) position is available in the Humanized Mouse Unit (HMU) of the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology, A*STAR, Singapore.

The understanding of many biological processes in humans relies on experimental studies in animal models, particularly rodents. However, many aspects of the human biological system are species specific, such as human specific cell types and immune genes. Our mission is to develop humanized mouse models which closely recapitulate in vivo human biology for the study of human diseases and drug development. This is critical to the understanding and development of therapeutics to many human specific diseases.

Specific requirements:
The candidate should be self-driven to pursue a scientific career, motivated, independent and passionate about immunology research
Hold a PhD in a relevant field of immunology or biomedicine.
Good knowledge and concept of immunology and demonstrated research experience and achievement
Good technical writing skills
Prior experience in working with mice, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence etc.

Responsibilities:
Undertake independent research under the direction of the PI and with other lab members
Assist the PI in quality control for experiments, data analysis, manuscript preparation, grant applications and lab management
Assist the PI in guiding and training students and junior research staff.
Present research achievements at internal and external seminars and conferences.
