School of Medicine
Established in 1930, Duke University School of Medicine is the youngest of the nation's top medical schools. Ranked sixth among medical schools in the nation, the School takes pride in being an inclusive community of outstanding learners, investigators, clinicians, and staff where interdisciplinary collaboration is embraced and great ideas accelerate translation of fundamental scientific discoveries to improve human health locally and around the globe. Composed of more than 2,600 faculty physicians and researchers, nearly 2,000 students, and more than 6,200 staff, the Duke University School of Medicine along with the Duke University School of Nursing, and Duke University Health System comprise Duke Health, a world-class academic medical center. The Health System encompasses Duke University Hospital, Duke Regional Hospital, Duke Raleigh Hospital, Duke Health Integrated Practice, Duke Primary Care, Duke Home Care and Hospice, Duke Health and Wellness, and multiple affiliations.
The Global Health Discovery Collaboratory (GHDC) Antibody Dynamics team at the Duke University Center for Human Systems Immunology ( ) is seeking a detail-oriented scientist to fulfill a key role as Research Analyst 1. The incumbent of this position in the Biophysical Immunology team will perform assays to assess the kinetics of antibody-antigen interactions in therapeutic antibody development and in responses to vaccination against global health pathogens including those that cause malaria and tuberculosis. The study results generated by the person in this role will inform human clinical and pre-clinical trials for vaccines, accelerate antibodies and other biologics candidates to clinic. The person in this role will also play a key role in assay development and standardization and in testing feasibility of novel methods. This person must be very organized, possess excellent communication skills, have a high level of technical precision, be interested in assay development and optimization, enjoy working in a fast-paced lab environment with multiple priorities, and be able to work well as part of a team. Job functions include:
