Prof Immunology and Microbiology at University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, interested in Strep and Gm+ pathogens that impact health and disease

We’re hiring in the Weber Lab at the University of Iowa! We study how intracellular pathogens (Chlamydia trachomatis and Orientia tsutsugamushi) manipulate host cells through secreted effector proteins. Two great opportunities for future scientists and research professionals.
