Main tasks

At the Hamburg Center for Translational Immunology (HCTI) within the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE), we are actively seeking highly motivated postdoctoral candidates with a robust background in immunology as part of the Institute of Inflammation and Carcinogenesis (UKE - HCTI - Startseite)

Our research focus centers on investigating the fundamental molecular and cellular mechanisms of T cell biology. Specifically, we explore how T cells adapt to environmental changes and ultimately contribute to either mediating physiological responses or engaging in pathological tissue-damaging processes (Vesely et al., Cell (2019), Zhao Yu et al., Science Immunology (2021), Tintelnot J. et al., Nature (2023), Siracusa F. et al., Nature Imm , and Liebold I. et al Science We follow a circular research approach that begins with a unique collection of human samples and multi-omics analyses, proceeds to mechanistic studies in mice, and returns to validation in humans - including clinical trials - to generate clinically relevant insights (Tintelnot J. et al., Nature 2023; Siracusa F. et al., Nature Immunology 2023)

In the years ahead, we aim to delve deeply into the complex interactions between environmental factors and the immune system. In particular, we would like to understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms that drive the response of intestinal and extra-intestinal CD4+ T cells to different type of diets in promoting protective, tolerogenic responses or pathogenic, pro-inflammatory reactions, directly or indirectly via modulating the bio-availability of microbial metabolites. One focus in this context is also the feto-maternal cellular adaptation to dietary interventions, as these processes can critically influence both maternal health and offspring development. Studying such mechanisms will provide valuable insights for developing improved treatments and advancing personalized nutrition and medicine.

The laboratory of Nicola Gagliani is funded by DFG and ERC, providing a unique opportunity to access a combination of state-of-the-art techniques and multiomics human and mouse data to answer key biological questions.

This position is initially limited until for project-related reasons.
