Postdoc position

Non-canonical virus-host transcriptome interactions in Epstein Barr virus (EBV) replication, oncogenesis, and immune escape. Two to three postdoc positions are available at a highly interactive and energetic lab investigating novel regulatory mechanisms driving virus replication, oncogenesis and inflammatory responses in the human oncogenic virus, EBV. Approaches include a wide array of RNA and DNA sequencing methods (e.g. RNA-seq, CAGE-seq, GROSeq, eCLIP, Cut-n-run, HiC, single molecule sequencing, single cell sequencing), molecular biology assays, cell and animal manipulation, and the use of extensive publicly available, in-house developed, and new high throughput data analysis methods.

Candidates with a wide range of expertise will be considered but applicants with expertise in cell manipulation and separation, molecular biology, and genomics and transcriptomics experience are especially encouraged to apply. Applicants with computational experience with solid biology backgrounds are also encouraged to apply. The positions are open immediately and salaries will be commensurate with experience. Please submit a CV or biosketch along with contact information for at least three referees via email to (erik at tulane.edu).
