Dear Sir/Madam, I take this opportunity to introduce myself, Devendra Bansal, Postdoc in Institute Pasteur, Lille, France. Presently I am studying the immune responses (autoantibody repertoire, T and B cell phenotyping, cytokine profiles) associated with clinical manifestations of P. falciparum infection in human host. During my PhD at PGIMER (Chandigarh, India) and post-doc at Institut Pasteur (Paris, France), I worked on host-parasite interaction and established an ex-vivo model to study the invasion of the colonic tissue and development of immune and/or inflammatory responses against pathogenic E. histolytica and non-pathogenic E. dispar. I have developed expertise in molecular biology, Immunology and cellular biology and now I am in search of good position at some esteemed organizations. I am creative in nature with quick and innovative ideas. I have the capability of independent thinking and taking right decisions. I keep myself updated with the literature, with the help of library and internet resources available. I am technically sound with experienced hands and performs all the assays by myself. I am also a good mentor and can able to transform my knowledge to the subordinates. In addition, I have more than 8 years research cum teaching experience and hope that this experience would be good enough to join any laboratory and contribute significantly to the ongoing research. I am herewith submitting my recent CV for your kind perusal. I am very enthusiastic about learning new advancements and approaches related to biological sciences and about the prospect of working in a challenging, cutting-edge environment that of opportunities for professional growth and increasing responsibilities. I am sure that if given opportunity, I will leave nothing to prove my best. Looking forward for a positive reply. Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you. With best regards, Yours Sincerely D. Bansal Posted: February 16, 2010 |

To
Whom It May Concern: My lab has been focused on the important NK cell and T cell activating molecule CD226 (it is also called platelet-T cell activating molecule, PTA-1) and the inhibitory molecule immune receptor called Lair-1 for many years and got a number of publications on the functions and signal transduction pathways of the two molecules; we have been very experienced in finding ligands for newly identified IgSF members and do the related functional works using excellent antibodies made by our own. During my studies in the field of immunology, I gained a great deal of experience in molecular biology (e.g. subcloning, protein expression, western blot), cell culture (e.g. B cell hybridoma, stably transfected CHO cells establishement ) and some unique culture work like induction of murine bone marrow derived mast cells and degranulation assay. As a result of my working experience, I am very interested in innate immunity and allergy, especially endothelial cell - immune cell (including mast cell) membrane proteins interaction, subsequent signal transductions and related functions; I would like to further study the decisive molecules governing the activation and inhibition of important subsets of immune cells like macrophage, granulocyte and DCs and how those molecules change during pathogenesis like infection and tumor; Since mast cells are directly related to Type-I hypersensitivity and many other diseases, I’d like to know more about how mast cell status is controlled by the surrounding micro-environment and Th2 subgroups. In addition, I am also very interested in mechanisms related to herpes simplex virus invasion.
Unfortunately, due to fund shortage problem, our university cut the
budget and my lab could hardly support my research any more. If you can
identify a position that suits my background please feel free to contact
me. Thanks for your time. E-mail: jinl73@hotmail.com Posted: July 21, 2009 |
