Immunogenomics Group Overview
The Immunogenomics Group comprises four collaborating research teams with a
shared goal of harnessing the human and mouse genome sequence to understand
key biomedical problems in immunity to infection, autoimmune diseases, allergy,
and leukemia/ lymphoma/myeloma.
Each independent group leader heads a focussed team with complementary expertise
at the cutting edge of specific problems in clinical and fundamental immunology,
while the integration of these teams in the Immunogenomics Group provides the
critical mass of conceptual and technical skills that enable team members to
tackle major immunological questions with the full range of modern molecular,
cellular and informatics tools.Current

Invitation to Students and Postdoctoral Fellows
Our laboratory provides an outstanding environment to acquire and build skills
at the cutting edge of modern biomedical research, with interdisciplinary training
in:
* genetics/genomics,
* microarray technology,
* molecular biology and retroviral gene transfer,
* biochemical analysis of signal transduction,
* cell biology and image analysis, and
* B and T cell immunobiology.
The group is supportive and interactive, with each PhD student or Fellow in
charge of a unique project of their choosing and design, and extensive contact
and advice from the senior members of the lab and the wider research community
of The John Curtin School. The School provides outstanding opportunities to
use state-of-the art equipment and learn from specialists in core facilities
for flow cytometry and cell sorting, confocal/2-photon/electron microscopy,
histopathology, Affymetrix microarray analysis, capillary DNA sequencing and
real-time PCR. Stimulating weekly lab meetings, journal clubs, seminar programs,
a network of national and international collaborations, and support to attend
and present at national and international meetings are designed to put you at
the forefront of the field.
You are warmly invited to contact us at Chris.Goodnow@anu.edu.au.
