Identification of Zbtb20 as novel regulator of T cell immunometabolism
Maternal antibodies providing neural protection to the infants "hasn't been noted before and is very important for pathogens that infect newborns because there is often some kind of neurologic consequence that may impact their entire lives," added lead study author Yike Jiang, an M.D./Ph.D. student at the medical school.
The treatment involves removing immune system cells known as T cells from each patient and genetically modifying the cells in the laboratory to attack and kill leukemia cells. The genetically modified cells are then infused back into patients. It's also known as CAR-T cell therapy.
The Immunology Program at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth is an interdepartmental program that trains both postdoctoral fellows and predoctoral students in cellular and molecular immunology. Most graduate students pursuing the PhD degree in immunology train in labs in the umbrella Program in Molecular and Cellular Biology (MCB) and receive their degree from the Microbiology and Immunology Department. Other immunology students matriculate through the Program in Experimental and Molecular Medicine (PEMM) PhD program.
Please email a cover letter and a curriculum vitae to Immunology@dartmouth.edu with “Postdoc Application” in the subject line. Applications will be made available to department faculty who will contact candidates directly if selected for review.
