  Postdoctoral Position Studying Tumor Inflammation and Immune Tolerance

  An NIH grant-supported post-doctoral position is available to study the role of IL-1, IL-37 and inflammasome (multi-protein complex controlling inflammation) in melanoma cells and immune cells. Both IL-1 and IL-37 are activated by inflammasomes, and play important roles in cancer and immune tolerance (Okamoto et at., JBC2010; Dunn et at., Cancer letter 2012; Liu et at., JID 2013; Luo et at., PNAS 2014; Li et al., PNAS 2015; Chen et al., Cytokine 2015; Dinarello et al., EJI 2016; Zhai et al., Oncogene 2017). Our current efforts are directed at understanding the mechanisms of action of inflammasomes and IL-37 in melanoma cells and immune cells. The successful post-doctoral fellow will define the role of inflammasomes and IL-37 in tumor immunology by dissecting intracellular and extracellular signaling pathways, and will develop therapeutics to target their effects. We use various mouse models, human tissues, primary cells and cell lines. We seek a highly motivated individual with a recent PhD degree in Immunology. Individuals with experience in adaptive immunity or tolerance are especially desired. Located in the Denver metro area near the Rocky Mountains, the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus integrates world-class education, research and patient care on one of the nation’s newest health sciences campuses.​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Applicants should send a cover letter, a CV and names of three references to: Dr. Mayumi Fujita, Professor of Dermatology and Immunology, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Email: joanne.domenico@ucdenver.edu or mayumi.fujita@ucdenver.edu. Dr. Fujita’s laboratory is supported by NIH (NCI) R01 and VA Merit Award.
