PARKOS and NUSRAT LABORATORIES
Epithelial Pathobiology and Mucosal Inflammation Research Unit

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine
Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, Georgia, USA

The Parkos and Nusrat Laboratories are actively seeking motivated scientists
(PhD, MD, MD/PhD) to join our epithelial pathobiology research team at Emory!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Opportunities exist for cutting-edge research projects in the areas of mucosal inflammation, epithelial barrier function, and cancer development. In addition to extensive use of in-vivo approaches complemented with cell biology/molecular biochemistry to study intestinal pathophysiology, there are ongoing translational studies in the areas of small molecule inhibitors and biomarker development.

Successful candidates will join a highly productive and collaborative team of junior and senior investigators working in modern, interconnected laboratory space. Within the group, there is a strong commitment to mentorship and an excellent track record of success for both academic and industrial-career track oriented individuals. Preference will be given to individuals with expertise in molecular/cell biology, protein biochemistry of eukaryotic systems, leukocyte function/migration, and transgenic animal work. A doctoral degree and English communication skills are necessary.

Interested individuals should submit their resume to Drs. Charles Parkos (cparkos@emory.edu) or Asma Nusrat (anusrat@emory.edu).
