Postdoctoral position is available in a NIH-funded research project to study functions of the anti-fibrotic molecule, SARA (Smad Anchor for Receptor Activation), under the direction of Dr.s Hayashida and Schnaper in the Division of Kidney Disease, Department of Pediatrics. The lab is located in a brand new Simpson Querrey Biomedical Research Center in downtown Chicago.
We are looking for candidates who are highly motivated, experienced and interested in studies of cellular signaling.
Our laboratory investigates molecular mechanisms by which kidney fibrosis progresses. Our recent works suggest that SARA is a critical gate-keeper for cellular phenotype. The person who fills this position will participate in a project to decipher how SARA exerts its functions. The candidate must have a PhD in molecular/cellular science or equivalent, and is assumed to be capable of planning and conducting experiments, and evaluating and troubleshooting the results rather independently, but with close consultation with the PIs. New ideas for experimental approach/design will be welcomed. Some technical support could be provided by a lab technician.

The Post Doc Associate for Pulmonary Medicine will be supporting Dr. Bria Coates. The underlying premise of Dr. Bria Coates’ research is to understand why healthy children die from the flu. Using a juvenile mouse model of influenza A virus infection, the research team is investigating the immune response to influenza virus in the lungs. Improved understanding of maladaptive immune responses in children with viral respiratory infections will identify new therapeutic targets to protect children from viral-induced lung injury.
As a research technologist in the Coates lab, you will advance our understanding of host-pathogen relationships in juvenile lungs through the analysis of both mouse and human samples. In coordination with the rest of the lab, responsibilities may include mouse colony management, sample acquisition and processing, ELISA, Western Blot, Flow Cytometry, RNA isolation, and PCR. Additional opportunities for experimental design, manuscript preparation, and grant support may also arise. Must be excited to work both independently and as an integral part of a team.

Responsible for the management and oversight of pre-award and post award activities relating to federal, industry and foundation sponsored research studies. Assists leadership as needed with philanthropic funds at the direction of the Division Head. Provides training and education to other research staff related to timely invoicing, research charge billing and account reconciliation, and will be expected to make recommendations to investigators and clinical research staff on process improvement to create and/or maintain practices and procedures such as maintenance of an awards database, review of requirements for performance reports or grant renewals and refinement of current accounting practices to enhance the research enterprise. Provides clerical support for clinical research projects.
