  • Research Scientist I - Pradhan-Sundd Lab

    Versiti 4.3company rating

    Senior scientist job in Wauwatosa, WI

    Located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the Versiti Blood Research Institute (VBRI) is the largest blood-focused research institute in the United States. With over 30 basic, translational, and clinical investigators, the institute is dedicated to advancing scientific knowledge and developing innovative therapies related to blood and blood disorders. The institute's research interests encompass a wide range of topics, including transfusion medicine, cellular therapy, thrombosis/hemostasis, immunology, and hematologic malignancies. As a vital part of Versiti, a non-profit organization with a blood bank at its core, the VBRI strives to improve lives through innovative research and the development of novel diagnostics and treatments. VBRI is part of the Milwaukee Regional Medical Campus, a rapidly growing clinical-translational research hub. VBRI's proximity to the Medical College of Wisconsin, Childrens' Hospital of Wisconsin, and Froedtert Hospital facilitates seamless interdisciplinary collaborations. A range of exemplary core facilities support highly competitive research. In the summer of 2024, construction of a new research building began, doubling existing VBRI research space to enable the recruitment of 10-15 new faculty. With its renowned researchers, strategic expansion plans and location in a highly collaborative environment, the VBRI is poised to maintain and expand its position as one of the leading hematology institutes in the world. Position Summary Develops and elucidates scientific aims, experimental design and execution. A Research Scientist I is equivalent to the Research Assistant Professor position at many universities. The Pradhan-Sundd Lab has research interests in the following areas: The role of hemolysis in sickle cell disease organ injury: Hemolysis is a key characteristic of sickle cell disease (SCD) that contributes to the disease pathogenesis and clinical heterogeneity. In SCD, cell free hemoglobin and its byproducts (heme and iron) cause vasculopathy as well as a slew of clinical consequences, including liver failure. Although liver injury affects up to ~40% of hospitalized SCD patients, therapeutic approaches to prevent liver injury in SCD are limited. In the Pradhan-Sundd lab we are interested in understanding the molecular (signalling) mechanism of hemolysis induced acute and chronic liver injury. We are also investigating the processes of hepatic hemoglobin, heme, and iron clearance in SCD. Sinusoidal endothelium driven liver directed gene therapy in hemophilia: Hemophilia A is an X-linked recessive bleeding disorder caused by the absence of coagulation factor- VIII (FVIII). Individuals who are affected are at risk of spontaneous bleeding into joints which can be life threatening. Recent advances in liver-directed gene transfer suggest that gene therapy can successfully treat hemophilia A. FVIII is produced in the liver sinusoidal endothelial cells. Thus, liver sinusoidal endothelial cell viability and functioning are important for successful liver directed gene transfer in Hemophilia. We have recently shown liver sinusoidal endothelial maladaptive structural changes in FVIII-deficient mice and their deleterious impact on the efficacy of liver-directed gene transfer. Abnormal endothelial function was recently recognized in patients with hemophilia A. Our current research focuses on investigating the molecular mechanisms that contribute to the loss of endothelial fenestration in individuals with FVIII deficiency, and how this loss impacts liver-directed gene therapy in patients with hemophilia. Total Rewards Package Benefits Versiti provides a comprehensive benefits package based on your job classification. Full-time regular employes are eligible for Medical, Dental, and Vision Plans, Paid Time Off (PTO) and Holidays, Short- and Long-term disability, life insurance, 7% match dollar for dollar 401(k), voluntary programs, discount programs, others. Responsibilities With direction from PI, assists in designing goal-oriented, hypothesis driven research program(s) Takes advantage of opportunities to apply for local or national grants as applicable to fund relevant research Experimental work and data analyses Maintains an active scientific publication and presentation record based on individual and PI's research.

  • Research Scientist I - Zhu Lab

    Versiti 4.3company rating

    Senior scientist job in Wauwatosa, WI

    Located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the Versiti Blood Research Institute (VBRI) is the largest blood-focused research institute in the United States. With over 30 basic, translational, and clinical investigators, the institute is dedicated to advancing scientific knowledge and developing innovative therapies related to blood and blood disorders. The institute's research interests encompass a wide range of topics, including transfusion medicine, cellular therapy, thrombosis/hemostasis, immunology, and hematologic malignancies. As a vital part of Versiti, a non-profit organization with a blood bank at its core, the VBRI strives to improve lives through innovative research and the development of novel diagnostics and treatments. VBRI is part of the Milwaukee Regional Medical Campus, a rapidly growing clinical-translational research hub. VBRI's proximity to the Medical College of Wisconsin, Childrens' Hospital of Wisconsin, and Froedtert Hospital facilitates seamless interdisciplinary collaborations. A range of exemplary core facilities support highly competitive research. In the summer of 2024, construction of a new research building began, doubling existing VBRI research space to enable the recruitment of 10-15 new faculty. With its renowned researchers, strategic expansion plans and location in a highly collaborative environment, the VBRI is poised to maintain and expand its position as one of the leading hematology institutes in the world. Position Summary Develops and elucidates scientific aims, experimental design and execution. A Research Scientist I is equivalent to the Research Assistant Professor position at many universities. The Zhu Lab is primarily focused on unraveling the mechanisms of receptor transmembrane signaling. Specifically, our attention is directed towards cell surface receptors featuring single transmembrane domains, such as integrins, receptor tyrosine kinases, and receptor-like tyrosine phosphatases. Through a multidisciplinary approach encompassing structural biology, protein engineering, biochemistry, and cell biology techniques, we aim to elucidate how these receptors transmit signals across the cell membrane. Our investigations center on understanding the conformational regulation triggered by ligand binding at the extracellular domain or cytoplasmic domain stimulations. Our goal is to illustrate the intricate mechanisms governing receptor-ligand interactions and the conformational changes necessary for transmembrane signaling, spanning the extracellular, transmembrane, and cytoplasmic domains. We are currently engaged in several projects, delving into the conformational requirements for bi-directional transmembrane signaling in integrins, elucidating the structural and functional basis of integrins as pathogen receptors, exploring integrin ligand interactions, and developing antibodies and small molecules that target or stabilize specific integrin conformations. Integrins, crucial cell surface receptors, play a pivotal role in regulating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions across various biological processes, including development, hemostasis, antigen recognition, homing, and inflammation. Dysregulation of integrin activation is observed in pathological conditions such as autoimmune diseases and thrombosis. Our overarching goal is to uncover the intricate correlation between receptor conformational regulation and signal transduction, aiming to contribute to the design of more efficient and safer therapeutic agents. A new focus of our lab entails unraveling the mechanism behind coronavirus spike protein-mediated cell fusion and viral infection.
