Job Description

Description:

The ADA Forsyth Institute was founded in 1910 as the Forsyth Dental Infirmary for Children (later, the Forsyth Institute), to provide dental care to the disadvantaged children of Boston. While continuing to serve children in need, yet recognizing the ultimate goal is to prevent dental disease, the Institute in 1915 began to focus on scientific research and is today the world’s leader in oral health research. In October of 2023, the Institute joined with the American Dental Association to form the ADA Forsyth Institute, a 501(c)(3) entity dedicated to improving people’s oral and overall health and powering the profession of dentistry through cutting-edge basic research, creative translational science, innovative clinical technologies, and global public health outreach. Consistent with the Institute’s founding mission, the ADA ForsythKids mobile dental program continues to serve children in need.

We currently have an immediate opening for a Research Assistant in Dr. Zhou's laboratory at ADA Forsyth. The Zhou lab utilizes mouse models and a 3D organoid culture system, coupled with immunological and cellular biological approaches to exploring strategies to enhance stem/progenitor cell-based tissues and alleviate autoimmune inflammation in the context of Sjogren’s syndrome, a chronic autoimmune disorder.

Required Skills and Experience :

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Immunology, Molecular Biology, Cellular Biology, or a related discipline.
  • Practical experience with mouse models and cell culture is required.
  • Previous experience in flow cytometry and immunohistochemical staining is beneficial.

Interested candidates are encouraged to submit their applications, including a curriculum vitae, a research statement, and the names and contact information of 3 references. For further inquiries, please contact Dr. Jing Zhou at jzhou@forsyth.org.
