Full Job Description

Job Summary

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), one of the largest institutes of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and part of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), conducts and supports a global program of research to better understand, treat, and ultimately prevent infectious, immunologic, and allergic diseases.

The Laboratory of Immunoregulation (LIR) within the Division of Intramural Research, NIAID, seeks a candidate to serve as an infectious disease staff clinician in clinical and translational research. See more information about LIR.

The successful applicant will be an enthusiastic, highly motivated clinician-scientist who will provide direct clinical care to patients enrolled in LIR clinical protocols at the NIH Clinical Center and outpatient clinics. The incumbent will aid in the development, implementation, performance, and management of clinical research protocols aimed at achieving 1) antiretroviral therapy-free virologic remission or a cure in people living with HIV (PLWH) and 2) virologic suppression and immune reconstitution in PLWH carrying multidrug- or pan-resistant HIV. 

The clinician will provide mentorship to clinical staff, including fellows, nurses, and students, to ensure that clinical protocols are properly conducted and will participate in training fellows in the NIAID Infectious Diseases Clinical Fellowship Program.

In addition to providing clinical care for study participants enrolled in clinical trials, the staff clinician will conduct comprehensive bench-to-bedside research in diverse cohorts of PLWH in order to address fundamental pathogenic questions, such as elucidating mechanisms of viral persistence and the role of the host immunity in virologic suppression and evaluating promising novel therapeutic agents in both ex vivo and in vivo settings.
