Welcome to the Ono Lab at the University of Michigan Medical School!
Welcome to the Ono Lab at the University of Michigan Medical School!
The Ono lab studies the roles played by cellular structures in the life cycle of enveloped viruses including HIV-1 and influenza A virus.
The Ono lab studies the roles played by cellular structures in the life cycle of enveloped viruses including HIV-1 and influenza A virus.
Our lab provides a research and training environment in which highly motivated individuals with diverse backgrounds (including race and ethnicity, gender and gender identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, culture, religion, age, disability status, political views, and nationality) work side by side and share the excitement in basic science research while being respectful and kind to each other.
We look forward to mentor students and postdocs who share our value in diversity, dedication to research, and enthusiasm for science!
A postdoctoral position
A postdoctoral position
is available for a highly motivated individual with a strong background in cell biology, molecular biology, and/or virology. If interested, please send CV and names of 3 references to:
