【招聘帖】埃默里大学 李超然课题组 招聘博士后 免疫代谢及组织免疫学方向
The research group of Dr. Chaoran Li in the Department of Microbiology &Immunology at Emory University School of Medicine is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to study the regulation of immunocytes in non-lymphoidtissues and how they control organismal metabolism and tissuehomeostasis.
About the PI:
Dr. Chaoran Li obtained a BSc in Biological Sciences from Peking University and a PhD in Immunology from Duke University, where he investigated the role of microRNAs and epigenetic mechanisms in controlling the differentiation andfunction of CD4+ T cells. Dr. Li continued his training in the joint laboratory of Drs. Diane Mathis and Christophe Benoist at Harvard Medical School. His research focused on dissecting the regulation of a unique population of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in adipose tissue, and how they control organismal metabolism at homeostasis and during obesity-induced metabolic diseases. Through his doctoral and postdoctoral studies, Dr. Li has developed a strong research program in the areas of T cell differentiation, immunometabolism, and tissue immunology. He has published a number of first and co-first author papers in high-impact journals including Cell, Blood, PNAS,and Sci. Signal. Dr. Li is a recipient of the D. Bernard Amos Research Award from Duke University and the CRI Irvington Postdoctoral Fellowship from Cancer Research Institute. In January 2020, Dr. Li joined the Department of Microbiology & Immunology at Emory University School of Medicine as an assistant professor.

Research areas:
It has become increasingly clear that the immune system not only defends against pathogens and enforces tolerance to “self”, but also maintains organismal homeostasis and safeguard the function of non-lymphoid tissues. This is carriedout by unique tissue-resident immune populations with distinctive transcriptional profiles and antigen receptor repertoires that interact with local stromal/parenchymal cells and environmental factors. The central goal of the research in my laboratory is to combine genetic mouse models, low-input/single-cell “-omics” approaches, and CRISPR/Cas9-based in vivo screening to dissect the environmental triggers and molecular mechanisms that control homeostasis of tissue immune cells. We are particularly interested in studying the role of T cells residing in the adipose tissue and skin and how they impact obesity-associated metabolic and inflammatory diseases.
