The Lynch lab in the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine is hiring a postdoctoral researcher to explore bacterial motility in host-microbe symbiosis. This project will explore motility determinants in mutualist and pathogenic members of the Vibrio genus using in vitro and in vivo models so we can better understand the development and function of these determinants across these and other bacteria. It will leverage several techniques, including but not limited to molecular genetics, fluorescence microscopy, computational modeling and analysis, and bacterial physiological analysis.
