UT Southwestern Medical Center, Department of Molecular Biology, invites applications for an Instructor (research track, nontenured) faculty position. The position requires a Ph.D. in Biology or related fields and at least 4 years of postdoctoral experience in field. Primary responsibilities will include: performing experiments to elucidate the biochemical mechanism of inflammasome activation. The experimental approaches include establishing a cell-free system that recapitulates inflammasome activation in vivo, biochemical purification of factors that mediate inflammasome activation, performing cell biological experiments to investigate the process of inflammasome activation, using CRISPR and other genetic techniques to determine the role of inflammasomes in mouse models. Will also perform experiments to investigate the structural basis of innate immunity and inflammation. Candidates should apply online at https://jobs.utsouthwestern.edu/.

The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Department of Molecular Biology, invites applications for an Instructor (research track, nontenured) faculty position. The position requires a Ph.D. in molecular biology, pharmacology, or related field and at least 6 years of postdoctoral experience. Will perform research that will increase our molecular and cellular insights on how to induce neural regeneration after traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries. Research requires highly specialized expertise performing animal surgeries, especially on traumatic spinal cord and brain injuries. The position also requires experimental techniques in molecular biology, cell cultures, cryosections of neural tissues, immunohistochemistry, confocal microscopes, animal behavior paradigms, and statistical data analysis.
