We are inviting applications from candidates for one postdoctoral fellow in a Indo-UK collaborative project (UK-MRC Funded), in the area of host pathogen interactions and antimicrobial resistance. Our laboratory works on innate immune response and host pathogen interactions in microbial keratitis (corneal infection). For last few years our laboratory is working on role of antimicrobial peptides to combat pathogens and both the projects involve identification of antimicrobial peptides expressed in patients, deciphering the mechanism of action of various novel peptides, and cell signaling pathways activated by these peptides. Our laboratory is located in LV Prasad Eye Institute, in Hyderabad.

18 months

PhD in Life Sciences, experience with mammalian cell culture preferred.
