Neil and Margery Blacklow Chair in Infectious Diseases and Immunology
Immediate opening! Two postdoctoral positions are available immediately to study cellular andmolecular mechanisms resulting in immunosuppression after alcohol use. Thefocus of this research is the role of monocytes and dendritic cells indecreased antigen-specific T cell activation after alcohol use.Intracellular signalling mechanisms resulting in decreased NF-kBactivation and inflammatory cytokine induction after acute alcoholconsumption are being investigated. Please contact Dr. Szabo for details.
Rotation projects are available related to microbiota-gut brain axis and antibiotic usage and the sequelae of antibiotic use in hospitalized patients which include Clostridium difficile and multi-drug resistant organism infection and colonization.
Imoigele P. Aisiku, MD’97 Chair in Health Equity and Diversity
A postdoctoral position is available to study in this laboratory. Contact Dr. Ip for additional details.
