Post-Doctoral Fellow - 37681 Faculty

The Jonsson lab is looking for a post-doctoral fellow to join the research team led by Dr. Anna Helena Jonsson, Assistant Professor in the Division of Rheumatology at the University of Colorado Denver, Anschutz Medical Campus. The Jonsson lab studies the disease mechanisms that drive rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases. We use human immunology techniques (i.e., using cells from human blood and tissues) and analysis of -omics data, including spatial transcriptomics, to investigate the role of CD8 T cells in the cellular and molecular mechanisms of autoimmune diseases.This post-doctoral fellowship will focus on identifying the spatial location and cellular neighbors of granzyme K-expressing CD8 T cells in tissues affected by autoimmune disease. This project will involve a mix of bench science and analysis of spatial transcriptomic and bulk RNA-seq data.

+ Independently and creatively identify, review, develop, and implement new or modified laboratory techniques and experimental designs required for research projects.

+ Coordinate with Shared Resources on campus to arrange and execute necessary components of the project, including sample selection and acquisition and data collection.

+ Perform independent basic analysis of spatial transcriptomic data and work with a computational analyst and other collaborators on more sophisticated analyses of spatial transcriptomics datasets.

+ Assist and train junior team members and collaborate with and support Principal Investigators (PI) and other stakeholders with laboratory and research functions.

- this role is expected to work onsite and is located in Aurora, Colorado.

Dr. Jonsson launched her lab at CU Anschutz in summer 2023 after spending eight years doing research in lab of world-renowned immunologist and arthritis biologist, Dr. Michael Brenner. During that time, she also worked with a large nationwide research consortium that applied cutting-edge technologies to human tissue samples. Her research will leverage discoveries from these high-profile research collaborations to inform her cellular and molecular immunology studies of autoimmune disease.The work will take place in a sunny space in a large open-concept lab area that houses several labs in the Division of Rheumatology. The building is surrounded by lawns, trees, and walkways in the center of the beautiful CU Anschutz Medical Campus.The University of Colorado offers a comprehensive benefits package.
