We are recruiting for postdoctoral applicants interested in studying how dendritic cells and fibroblastic cells regulate vascular growth and function in lymph nodes and in skin. We are interested in both basic mechanistic studies as well as in applying our mechanistic discoveries to models of autoimmune diseases. The lab’s focus sits at the interface between immunology and vascular biology and we welcome applicants interested in either. Please see website at: http://www.hss.edu/research-staff_lu-theresa.asp. The Lu Lab is located in New York City at the Cornell Medical campus. The lab is an integral part of Cornell's active Graduate Program in Immunology and Microbial Pathogenesis, and postdoctoral fellows are exposed to a rich training environment of graduate students, postdocs, and faculty.

To apply: Interested applicants should send cover letter, CV, and contact information for 3 references to Theresa T. Lu, MD, PhD at lut@hss.edu.
