Innate immune cells are constantly sensing the environment and responding to pathogen invasion. In this process, cells change their transcriptional and proteomic landscape. Microproteins are small previously unknown proteins that have been shown to play regulatory roles in diverse cellular pathways. The project aims to identify microproteins in innate immune cells involved in immune processes by combining computational and experimental approaches.
We are looking for a motivated and curious PhD student with an orientation towards Molecular Biology and a special interest in innate immunity, protein research, and understanding the molecular mechanisms regulating the immune response. the position is for 4 years to start immediately or as agreed.
The Aramburu lab is an inclusive and interdisciplinary work environment where we foster career development while focusing on addressing novel biological questions across scales. The Aramburu lab is a member of the Laboratory for Molecular Infection Medicine Sweden (MIMS), the Swedish partner in the Nordic EMBL Partnership for Molecular Medicine.
