Research Specialist | Laboratory of Immune Cell Epigenetics and Signaling

at  Rockefeller University

Organization Overview: In the immune system,changes in chromatin are associated with,and contribute to,the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells into highly diverse immune-cell subpopulations. Cell-type specific programs that drive responses of differentiated immune cells to pathogens differ significantly between B and T lineage cells,as well as between cells of the adaptive and innate immune systems. We study the mechanisms by which pathogens affect the function of chromatin,as well as how they affect long-lasting immune and non-immune cell responses to the environment. Overview:
The Laboratory of Immune Cell Epigenetics and Signaling is looking for a Research Specialist to coordinate the lab research program on epigenetic control of cell dormancy and immune regulation.
