The laboratory of Dr. Marlene Bouvier in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Illinois at Chicago has an immediate opening for a Research Scientist, based on number of years of research experience after PhD, to play an active role in our ongoing studies of immune evasion mechanisms involving Adenovirus and immune cell surface receptors (host-pathogen interactions). 

We are seeking a highly motivated and intellectually curious individual with a rigorous training in virology, immunology, or related fields and advanced hands on experience in molecular biology and other techniques such as generation of virus stocks, determination of virus titers, acquisition and analysis of flow cytometry data, quantitative PCR, cell-based and biochemical assays, and maintenance of mammalian cells. Experience with imaging techniques would be a plus.

PhD in Virology, Immunology, Microbiology, Molecular Biology, Genetics or related degree/field required. A minimum of three years’ related research experience required.
