The postdoctoral associates will work in close collaboration with scientists at the Malawi-Liverpool-Wellcome Clinical Research Program in Blantyre,(For more postdoctoral recruitment information, visit:boshihoujob.com) Malawi to investigate viral genomic and transcriptomic profiles in infected alveolar macrophages and how the cellular distribution compares in anti-retroviral treated or untreated study participants. A second project will focus on identification of the role of novel host-dependency factors, particularly long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in HIV-1 latency/persistence and investigate how lncRNAs can be therapeutically targeted.

The postdoctoral associates will have the opportunity to work in an internationally collaborative and supportive environment, gain expertise in molecular virology, immunology and RNA biology and receive mentoring for research and career development.
