The Desai lab in the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Virginia seeks a Lab and Research Tech 1-2 OR Lab Specialist. The exact position will depend on academic qualifications and lab experience. The research in Desai lab seeks to understand the mechanisms through which immune cells sense and adapt to rapid changes in the tissue environment during host defense, inflammation, and tissue homeostasis. In this context, we take a special interest in the role of ion channels, GPCRs and calcium signaling in the sensory physiology of different types of tissue-resident macrophages. Current projects in the Desai lab focus on defining the ion channel and GPCR-mediated signals controlling: (1) cell-intrinsic defense processes; (2) immunometabolism; (3) functional specialization of organ-resident myeloid cells; (4) neuroimmune crosstalk. Further information about the lab research interests can be found here or by communicating directly with Dr. Bimal Desai....

The Leitinger Laboratory in the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Virginia is hiring a Research Technician OR a Laboratory Specialist, depending on qualifications and experience of the applicant. The Leitinger laboratory studies the regulation of immune cell-mediated inflammatory and metabolic responses in infectious and chronic progressive diseases including atherosclerosis, heart failure, diabetes and fatty liver disease. We are particularly interested in how tissue damage is translated into chronic inflammation and tissue fibrosis, and how oxidized phospholipids and other danger signals such as ATP or heme contribute to these processes. We use mass spectrometry and metabolomics to identify and characterize novel danger-associated molecules that can be used as biomarkers of disease progression. The overall goal of our research is to identify mechanisms that drive pathologies in chronic progressive diseases and to devise therapeutic strategies that...
