　　招聘简介：

　　神经免疫学实验室专注于基础研究和转化研究，以确定慢性疼痛发生和维持的机制，长期目标是制定预防性或治疗性干预措施。

　　我们正在寻找一位积极性很高的博士后研究员，负责两个关于神经病和炎症性疼痛的项目。一个项目重点研究癌症对免疫系统的影响以及对化疗诱导的神经病变的影响。另一个项目的目的是了解与肥胖相关的炎症变化如何增加肌肉骨骼疼痛。

　　英文原文：

　　The Laboratory of Neuroimmunology has a focus on basic and translational research to identify mechanisms underlying the development and maintenance of chronic pain with the long term goal to develop preventive or curative interventions.

　　We are looking for a highly-motivated post-doctoral researcher for two projects on neuropathic and inflammatory pain. One project focuses on the influence of cancer on the immune system and the effect on chemotherapy-induced neuropathy. The other project aims at understanding how inflammatory changes associated with obesity augment musculoskeletal pain.

　　The team led by Dr. Andrew Shepherd is part of the Neuroimmunology Laboratory that is shared by 5 well-funded PIs and provides a well-equipped, highly interactive, collaborative and international research-focused environment. We highly value hard work, curiosity, innovation, teamwork and professional development, in combination with a healthy work/life balance.

　　Applicants should have recently obtained (or be about to receive) a Ph.D. in neuroscience, physiology or equivalent. Some experience with mouse handling is also required. Experience with pain measurements or other behavioral analyses in mice, cellular signaling, biochemistry, and confocal microscopy is preferred. The position is available immediately.

　　Please submit your CV along with contact information for 3 references. For further information please contact Dr. Andrew Shepherd (ajshepherd@mdanderson.org).
