The Virology Division in the Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology at the University

of Washington School of Medicine is recruiting a Post-Doctoral Scholar to study protective

immune responses in human skin and mucosal surfaces against viral pathogens, including

human herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection. The research program seeks to expand the

development of 3-D ‘tissue organoids’ and/or ‘organ-on-chip’ platforms based on our current

‘skin-on-chip’ microfluidic device with advanced microvascular network. Our goal is to delineate

the recruitment and function of various innate and adaptive immune components in response to

human HSV infection, and to evaluate newly discovered antiviral drugs and compounds. The

candidate will conduct independent research and collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of

bioengineers, clinicians and researchers.

Qualifications:

Desired candidate will have a relevant PhD degree, experience and knowledge in the fields of

Bioengineering, Immunology, Virology, or Infectious Disease. The candidate must be highly

motivated, have a strong desire to develop cutting-edge technology, and be proficient in

microscopic imaging. Strong analytical, writing, communication and problem-solving skills are

preferred. Individuals with less than five (5) years of postdoc experience are eligible for this

position.

Please submit a cover letter describing research interests and career goals, curriculum vitae,

and three reference letters to: jiazhu@uw.edu
