GRA opportunity: Ph.D. student positions with Graduate Research Assistantship (GRA) are available immediately in the Lundberg-Kienlen Lung Biology and Toxicology Laboratory at Oklahoma State University to study host-pathogen interactions with a focus on noncoding RNAs, influenza virus, and/or SARS-CoV-2. Major techniques used in the lab include high throughput analyses (RNA-seq, proteomics, and library screen), gene knockout/down and overexpression (CRISPR/Cas9, RNA interfere...nce, and molecular cloning), gene and protein quantitation (droplet digital PCR, real-time PCR, Western blotting and immunostaining), biochemical, molecular and cellular techniques, knockout and transgenic mice and various animal models. Ph.D. students will be trained for various advanced technologies and professional career skills including presentation, networking, and grant writing. In addition to dissertation research, Ph.D. students have opportunities to collaborate with research faculty, postdoctoral fellows, and other Ph.D. students in the lab for projects involving infectious diseases, pathogenesis of lung diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis and COPD, and stem cell therapy and human lung tissue modeling. The candidates who are interested in joining a dynamic, collaborative, and interdisciplinary research group and who are responsible, dedicated, self-motivated, and hard-working are encouraged to apply.
