A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Xue Han, in the Department of Microbial Infection and Immunity and Pelotonia Institute for Immuno-Oncology (PIIO) at the Ohio State University.
The main research directions of the Han Lab are to 1) study new mechanisms of immune escape in solid tumors and hematologic malignancies; 2) identify novel immunomodulating pathways and their applications to treat cancer, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases; 3) understand the mechanisms of immune-related adverse events caused by cancer immunotherapy. Dr. Han has led several vital projects to characterize PD-1H (VISTA), a recently identified immunomodulating molecule. 1) For the first time, identifying PD-1H as a suppressive receptor on hematopoietic cells and firstly describing promoted anti-tumor immunity in PD-1H deficient mice (J Clinic Invest, 2014). 2) Solving crystal structure and finding key unique structural features of PD-1H (PNAS, 2020). 3) In addition to basic immunobiology, Dr. Han’s work shows that PD-1H is an essential molecule to control autoimmune lupus (Science Translational Medicine, 2019).
This study led to the collaboration with a biotech company to develop therapeutic agents to treat human autoimmune and inflammation diseases. 4) In addition to solid tumor, Dr. Han and her colleagues find that PD-1H can mediate immune evasion in myeloid leukemia, in which PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy doesn’t work well in clinic (J Clinic Invest, 2024).

The Tso Lab at The Ohio State University Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Health (https://u.osu.edu/ivytsolab/) is seeking 2 postdoctoral fellows to work on a new NIMH-funded study investigating social cognition in psychosis spectrum disorders using EEG and other ongoing research studies. The lab uses multimethods, including psychophysics, eye tracking, multimodal fMRI, EEG, neuromodulation (TMS, tACS), and computational modeling to investigate the cognitive and neural bases of social processes affected in psychosis and bipolar disorder and related psychopathology. Start date is flexible, but should be between January and August 2024. Both clinical and non-clinical PhD candidates are welcome to apply.
The postdoc fellows’ primary responsibilities include: 1) setting up experimental tasks, including coding the stimulus presentation software; 2) building the databases necessary to manage data collection and data sharing; 3) setting up scripts to preprocess behavioral and EEG data; and 4) performing data preprocessing on a regular basis as data being collected; 5) performing data analyses; 6) presenting research findings at scientific conferences, writing and publishing manuscripts to disseminate the findings; and 9) assisting with grant writing to obtain research funds to continue this line of research.
Candidates with clinical backgrounds would have the option to designate 25%-50% effort to clinical assessments in the context of the R01 study and/or clinical services at the OSU Early Psychosis Intervention (EPICENTER) to accrue supervised clinical hours for licensure. Related responsibilities include: 1) administer and score the diagnostic instruments, clinical symptom ratings, and functional assessments; 2) lead and participate in outreach activities on OSU campuses and in local communities to facilitate recruitment; and 3) provide consultation to research staff and students on clinical issues encountered during study screening and evaluation sessions.
These positions are ideal for recent PhD graduates seeking a postdoctoral career of high research productivity (publications, grant writing) to facilitate transition to an independent academic research career, as well as those who are seeking clinical training to obtain licensure following postdoctoral training. Mentoring and allowances will be available to support career development activities (e.g., conference travel, workshop registration) and grant writing (e.g., NIH F32 or K award, NSF).

The Ohio State University, commonly Ohio State or OSU, is a public land-grant research university in Columbus, Ohio. The flagship of the University System of Ohio, it is considered a Public Ivy, and has been ranked by major institutional rankings as among the best public universities in the United States. Founded in 1870 as the state’s land-grant university and the ninth university in Ohio with the Morrill Act of 1862, Ohio State was originally known as the Ohio Agricultural and Mechanical College and focused on various agricultural and mechanical disciplines but it developed into a comprehensive university under the direction of then-Governor and later U.S. president Rutherford B. Hayes, and in 1878 the Ohio General Assembly passed a law changing the name to “the Ohio State University” and broadening the scope of the university. Admission standards greatly tightened and became more selective throughout the 1990s and 2000s.
Ohio State’s political science department and faculty have greatly contributed to the construction and development of the constructivist and realist schools of international relations; a 2004 LSE study ranked the program as 1st among a public institution and 4th overall in the world. A member of the Association of American Universities, Ohio State is a leading producer of Fulbright Scholars, and is the only school in North America that offers an ABET-accredited undergraduate degree in welding engineering. The university’s endowment of $5.29 billion in 2020 is among the most in the world. Past and present alumni and faculty include 5 Nobel Prize laureates, 9 Rhodes Scholars, 7 Churchill Scholars, 1 Fields Medalist, 7 Pulitzer Prize winners, 64 Goldwater scholars, 6 U.S. Senators, 15 U.S. Representatives, and 104 Olympic medalists. It is classified among “R1: Doctoral Universities – Very high research activity”. As of 2021, Ohio State has the most number of students in the United States who are in the 95th percentile or above on standardized testing of any public university.
