Lisboa, Lisboa, Portugal GIMM Tempo inteiro
Job Opportunity:

A postdoctoral position is available in the Luisa Figueiredo Lab at the Gulbenkian Institute for Molecular Medicine to investigate the interactions between Trypanosoma brucei and blood vessels. This parasite causes devastating diseases in Africa by crossing blood vessels to invade critical organs. Our project aims to unravel the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying this process, which could lead to novel treatment strategies for trypanosomiasis and related conditions.

We are looking for an independent and collaborative researcher with a strong background in molecular biology, cell culture, bioinformatics, or imaging techniques. The successful candidate will employ cutting-edge tools, including parasite genetics, in vitro crossing assays, genomic analysis, and mouse infection models.

The ideal candidate should have a doctoral degree in life sciences and a passion for solving complex biological puzzles. The position offers a competitive salary and a 3-year contract. The focus of the project is on characterizing parasite features essential for crossing blood vessels. Applicants should submit a CV, a statement of research interests, and two reference contacts.
