The Researcher will work on research projects at the interface between molecular microbiology, host-pathogen interactions. They will do so under the direct supervision of both Dr. Almagro-Moreno and a lab member that will act as their lab mentor. They will execute experiments and interpret results. This is a grant funded position.
The Moreno Lab in the Department of Host-Microbe Interactions is seeking a highly motivated Researcher to join a dynamic and collaborative research team. The Moreno lab investigates the emergence and evolution of bacterial pathogens. Our major research interests include elucidating the molecular strategies that bacterial pathogens develop for host colonization, virulence regulation and dispersal from the host.
Our research program focuses on pathogenic members of the family Vibrionaceae with a strong emphasis on the intestinal pathogen Vibrio cholerae and the climate-sensitive pathogen Vibrio vulnificus , source of fulminant septicemia. Our goal is to gain the knowledge to a) effectively forecast the traits of emergent virulent strains, b) predict the sources of outbreaks, and c) identify potential drug targets for prophylactic or therapeutic purposes to prevent colonization or limit the spread of these infectious agents.
The position offers extensive collaboration with microbiologists, structural biologists, computational modelers, and chemical biologists both within the lab, across the institution and with external collaborators that will provide a strong foundation for independent scientific development.
