About the Role
This hands-on laboratory role focuses on investigating intracellular pathways that regulate immune-cell phenotype, tissue migration, and inflammation. Ideal candidates hold a PhD in Immunology or Cell Biology and have strong experience with primary human immune cells, flow cytometry, and functional cellular immunology assays.
Responsibilities
- Isolate and work with primary immune cells from human blood.
- Perform in-vitro immunological and cellular assays.
- Conduct multidimensional/multiparameter flow cytometry and analyze immune-cell phenotypes.
- Apply molecular biology, biochemistry, and cellular immunology techniques to support research programs.
- Investigate immune-cell pathways related to inflammation and tissue migration.
Requirements
- PhD or equivalent in Immunology, Cell Biology, Biochemistry, or a related scientific discipline.
- Hands-on experience with primary immune-cell isolation from human blood.
- Strong experience with cellular and molecular immunology techniques.
- Hands-on experience with in-vitro immunological assays.
- Experience with multiparameter/multidimensional flow cytometry.
- Experience with cell engineering, including protein overexpression or CRISPR-mediated gene knockout.
- Experience collecting rodent tissues such as colon, spleen, lymph nodes, or bone marrow.
