Employer job description
From Houston Methodist's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
At Houston Methodist, the Postdoctoral Fellow position is responsible for performing basic research duties under the supervision/direction of a Physician and/or Principal Investigator. This position may work in a laboratory setting or may consist of computer work that supports the department's research mission.
We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Fellow to join our lab in the Immunobiology and Transplant Research department at the Houston Methodist Research Institute. Our research focuses on understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms of innate immune regulation and developing therapeutic strategies for cardiovascular, infectious, inflammatory, and autoimmune diseases, with particular emphasis on viral myocarditis, autoimmune myocarditis, and sepsis.
Our laboratory integrates molecular and cellular biology, immunology, genetics, single-cell RNA sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and advanced disease models to investigate the mechanisms underlying immune-mediated tissue injury and disease progression. A major goal of our research is to identify novel immune regulators and signaling pathways that can be therapeutically targeted to prevent or treat myocarditis, autoimmune diseases, sepsis, and related inflammatory disorders.
