Postdoctoral Fellow in Precision Medicine Translational Research - #Faculty

The Johns Hopkins Division of Rheumatology is recruiting an MD, PhD, or MD/PhD Postdoctoral Fellow to join a high-impact translational research program focused on developing noninvasive precision medicine tools (liquid biopsy) for systemic lupus erythematosus, lupus nephritis, and related autoimmune diseases. This work addresses several unmet needs in the field, including the disconnect between clinical measures and true disease activity, as well as the lack of data-driven treatment decisions.

The program integrates noninvasive urine and serum proteomics with spatial transcriptomics and tissue-based multi-omics in well-characterized longitudinal studies to define disease mechanisms and enable earlier, more precise treatment decisions.



Position Overview

- Identify and validate molecular biomarkers that reflect intrarenal disease activity, predict outcomes, and capture early treatment response

- Develop urine-based 'liquid biopsy'...
