The Ramanan lab aims to understand which maternal factors are crucial for a newborn's early development and long-term immune health, particularly in the context of infection and autoimmunity. Our multi-disciplinary approach will use a combination of single-cell techniques, metabolomics, and metagenomics in mouse models to study the entero-mammary axis, the communication between the maternal mammary gland and the offspring intestine.   We are currently seeking a highly motivated and independent postdoctoral fellow interested in identifying specific maternal factors, including microbes, and studying how they impact the offspring intestinal immune system in both early life and adulthood. The project will also involve working with mouse models of intestinal infection and autoimmunity. The ideal candidate will be an immunologist or microbiologist who has expertise in tissue immunology, mucosal immunology or microbiology and has experience in working with mouse...

  The Lee Group are looking for several postdoctoral candidates to understand the logic of aging and brain disease across multiple species and models, e.g., Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Parkinson Disease (PD) and Schizophrenia (SCZ). We apply an integrative and whole brain network (e.g., graph theory), multi-scale and multiple-modal approach that includes single neurons-barcoding for BRICseq, multiomic single nuclei (sn)-RNAseq and sn-ATACseq, spatial transcriptomics and proteinomics, circuit mapping, in vivo physiological recording, optogenetics, large-scale unbiased behavioral screen, stem cells and gene-editing in embryos. Here are examples of research areas. The logic of prodromal AD: AD is a progressive neu­rodegenerative disorder as a result of a complex series of events that take place in the brain over a long period of time-the prodromal phase can last longer than 20 years in humans-before being clinically diagnosed as AD dementia. The goal of this...
