This summer we will be holding a public information session for anyone interested in applying to the Pew Latin American Fellows program this year or in the future. This virtual session will be in a panel format and will offer information on the program, how to develop the research proposal, and tips on what makes a strong reference letter. We also hope to share a general idea of what the Pew community is like (i.e. how wonderful it is!).
We would love for you to share this widely with anyone who is planning on applying to the program, or is just interested in learning more about Pew Latin American Fellows. In order to encourage free exchange of information, this event will not be recorded, but we will send out a summary of frequently asked questions to everyone who registers.
Zoom registration details are below. If you have any questions, please be in touch!

Posiciones Doctorales y Postdoctorales Rentadas
Laboratorio de Transducción de Señales en Bacterias Patógenas, Instituto de Biología Molecular y Celular de Rosario. IBR (CONICET-UNR)
Homeostasis de cobre en la envoltura celular y su rol en la virulencia de Salmonella
El Laboratorio cuenta con Becas Doctorales y Postdoctorales disponibles inmediatamente para analizar el rol de proteínas periplásmicas en el control de la homeostasis de cobre de Salmonella, y cómo esto favorece la virulencia del patógeno. Se plantea el uso de herramientas de proteómica y genómica, y de técnicas de biología molecular, celular y genética bacteriana, para determinar los interactores de la chaperona CueP durante la sobrevida intracelular de Salmonella en células infectadas.
Las becas incluyen pasantías cortas en un laboratorio asociado en Massachussets, EEUU.
Requisitos: Graduados en Ciencias Biológicas, Biotecnología, Bioquímica, Microbiología o afines. Los interesados deberán enviar su CV, detallando notas obtenidas durante la carrera de grado o detalles de la carrera de posgrado al Dr. Fernando Soncini (soncini@ibr-conicet.gov.ar), o a la Dra. Susana Checa (checa@ibr-conicert.gov.ar).
