UW生物实验室，公司招人

大家好，我是UW大三生物专业的一名学生，现在在实验室打工，实验室教授想要招人，于是委托我发贴，谢谢！！！

1）首先是实验室招人，实验室在south lake，主要是tumor，virus方向。在实验室打工会学到许多生物实验技能，这些技能被和实验室合作的公司非常看重，所以对毕业想要找工作的同学非常有帮助。感兴趣的同学可以发邮件联系（这些信息在UW research website也可以找到）

Project Information

Project Title
HIV/SIV Pathogenesis, Host genetics, Therapy, and Vaccine
Project Description
Our laboratory's current area of focus is the pathogenesis of HIV infection, with particular emphasis on the mechanisms of HIV-1 persistence at extraordinarily low levels in vivo. We are devoting considerable effort toward identifying HIV-1 strains which are defective or attenuated, and human genes that protect against and/or control HIV-1 infection. We also have intense interest in defining the role of CD14+ monocytes in HIV-1 transmission as well as during the very early course of HIV-1 infection. In addition, we are involved in studies to define events of transmission, and modes of protection against SIV infection (using the SIV/macaque model). The above studies should assist in developing new therapeutic strategies and HIV-1 vaccine or strategies to enhance vaccine efficacy. The current research projects are listed below.

I. Suppressing HIV-1 Infection in Exposed Seronegative Adults

It has been extensively reported since early in the AIDS pandemic that some individuals fail to seroconvert and lack evidence for HIV-1 infection despite high-risk and/or multiple exposures to HIV-1. The mechanism(s) for resisting productive infection in the vast majority of Exposed Seronegatives (ES) is unknown. We have demonstrated, for the first time, that HIV-1 actually infects and persists in some ES at extraordinarily low levels. These levels are well below the detection limit of conventional assays. This finding was made possible by the development of highly sensitive, redundant PCR technology capable of detecting one viral template amongst millions or even billions of cells. The goal of this project is to define the viral and host factors that may contribute to the control of HIV-infection in vivo.

II. Minimal Levels of HIV-1 Infection

This proposal is designed to identify and characterize the frequency, replication state and variability of low-levels of HIV-1 infection by taking advantage of our previous experience in this challenging field with our improved technologies. We have shown persistence of low levels of HIV-1 infection in a few high-risk Exposed Seronegative (ES) individuals, and parallel evidence for low levels of SIV infection in macaques that were transiently viremic or vaccine-protected by standard assays. Most recently, we have found persistent low levels of HIV-1 infection in four vaccinated persons who were transiently viremic by conventional assays. These findings indicate that minimal levels of HIV-1 infection (MLHI) can be demonstrated in ES and vaccinated persons, only by improved technology with hundreds or thousands of PCR amplifications and sequence analyses on large amounts of cells. The goal of this project is to mechanize the viral detection processes and to assess for MLHI more rigorously among larger cohorts. These would include ES and vaccine recipients from NIH-funded vaccine trials, mainly the HIV Vaccine Trials Network (HVTN). We will characterize the genotype and phenotype of virus in breakthrough MLHI infection. These studies should assist in defining virologic and immunologic characteristics required to attenuate and/or substantially control HIV-1 infection, a critical goal of AIDS vaccine development.

III. Human Genes and Related Polymorphysims that Affect HIV Infection and Disease Progression

Extensive studies indicate that host genetic variability affects the risk for HIV-1 infection and disease pr
