About The Position

The Division of HIV, Infectious Diseases and Global Medicine located at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital (ZSFG) is seeking two Staff Research Associate I / II (SRA I / II) in the malaria research laboratory of Dr. Greenhouse at UCSF. The laboratory is a dynamic research environment with translational research focused on the immunology and molecular epidemiology of malaria. The successful applicant will be responsible for performing laboratory work, organizing samples and data in the laboratory, and coordinating work with local and international collaborators. This work is necessary to support funded malaria research using samples from a number of international studies. The EPPIcenter aims to advance the understanding of infectious diseases to reduce global morbidity and mortality. We believe that the greatest success in the fight against infectious diseases will come through a highly interdisciplinary, systems epidemiology approach, connecting traditionally siloed theoretical work, technology development, generation and collection of empiric data, and analysis using statistical and mathematical modeling.
