Overview:
The Department for Investigative Medicine at Western Michigan University Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine invites applications for a Post-Doctoral Fellow research position in the laboratory of Momoko Yoshimoto MD, PhD, Professor, Investigative Medicine. Ongoing projects for molecular immunology include: understanding the mechanisms that produce hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells and lymphoid progenitors in the mouse embryo, examining the effects of different cell origins on immune cell functions, producing hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells and antibody-secreting B cells using mouse and human pluripotent stem cells, and elucidating the preventive roles of B-1 cells against atherosclerosis. Dr. Yoshimoto’s lab utilizes many transgenic moues lines including lineage tracing and in vivo barcoding models. Postdoctoral fellows will lead research projects and have the opportunity to closely collaborate with experts in molecular biology, genetics and biochemistry in the department of investigative medicine.
Responsibilities:
Direct involvement and participation in discovery-based research
Communicates problems or matters of a scientific, technical and/or administrative nature both within the department and interdepartmentally utilizing computer technology
Conducts independent research and assists in the conduct of research
Analyzes data and interprets results to write reports and summaries of findings
Maintains accurate records of tests conducted, results, data and patients tested including calculation of results from supplied data, obtained data and statistics
Provides instruction in laboratory technique, instrumentation, and application of laboratory test procedures to new technicians and students
