Job Summary: The Department of Immunology and Infectious Diseases (IID) focuses on the biological, immunological, epidemiological and ecological aspects of viral, bacterial and protozoan diseases of animals and humans, including the vectors that transmit infectious agents. Research in the department's laboratories is primarily focused on diseases of developing countries. Insects are a key gateway for spreading disease because of their ability to ferry pathogens from one host to another. These vectors represent important biological touch points, especially in malaria, and we are pursuing innovative research programs to illuminate their roles and identify strategies for future disease control. In Africa — where the majority of malaria deaths occur — the primary vector of disease is the mosquito, Anopheles gambiae. The malaria parasite is transmitted through the bites of female mosquitoes, whose high reproductive capacity fuels malaria transmission. Therefore, targeting these...

Harvard’s program on Sea-Level Investigation and Management explores storage of water on and under land at volumes that matter for global sea level, and what such storage is worth. Candidate measures include stabilizing over-pumped aquifers, injecting water into deep geologic formations, and diverting seawater into below-sea-level depressions. Any of these may prove technically impossible, economically infeasible, or too costly to society. Existing knowledge does not permit dismissing them, however, and the program’s work is to establish which can be responsibly pursued. We seek a Director to co-lead the program with the Faculty Director. Reporting to the Executive Director, with a dotted line to the Faculty Director of the Salata Institute, the Director will bring a deep understanding of water management and hydrology to the program's strategy and direction: building, convening, and engaging a consortium of investigators at Harvard and other universities; building the program's...

About the Role:  We are looking for a talented scientist to lead the development and characterization of our antibody brain shuttle compounds and to optimize our shuttles for specific payloads in neurodegenerative diseases. Reporting to the Principal Scientist, you will work closely with our team, Brain Targeting Program (BTP), using both in vitro cellular systems and in vivo humanized mouse models. You will determine brain PK/PD profiles of our shuttle compounds, their biophysical properties, and assess therapeutic applications. The mission of the Wyss BTP is to develop a robust modular brain delivery platform that is able to deliver large-molecule therapeutics for diverse brain diseases. We aim to help expand the pipeline of CNS drugs by making our platform broadly available to companies, academics and non-profit organizations.  About You:  You are a collaborative, impact-focused problem solver who wants to be part of a dynamic team dedicated to creating and...

We are seeking a Software Developer with 1-3 years of professional software development experience who wants real ownership of production software and meaningful exposure to biomedical research. Under the guidance of senior developers, you will help integrate a natural-language conversational AI system for exploring biomedical metadata and visualizations into biomedical data portals, including developing APIs and packages to move visualizations in and out of these systems. You will work with researchers, designers, and engineers to build tools that allow scientists to efficiently query, visualize, and understand complex biological data through natural language and direct interaction with visualizations.  This role offers an opportunity to develop software at the intersection of AI, scientific discovery, and interactive data visualization - contributing to widely used biomedical data resources and community tools. Core Responsibilities:  Develop and maintain web-based software...
