This position is based within a collaborative project between the Maciocia and Surinova laboratories, two internationally recognised groups working at the forefront of immunotherapy and proteomics research. Together, they are developing next-generation CAR-T cell therapies for T-cell lymphoma, an aggressive blood cancer with significant unmet clinical need. Applications should include a CV and a Cover Letter: In the Cover Letter please provide evidence of the essential and desirable criteria in the Person Specification part of the Job Description.

You will have a PhD (or be close to completion) in Immunology, Cancer Biology, Cell Biology, Biochemistry, or a related discipline, together with a strong commitment to high-quality translational research. You should possess experience in cell culture, T-cell biology, flow cytometry, molecular biology techniques, and bioinformatic analysis using tools such as R or Python. Ideally, you will also have experience in proteomics, mass spectrometry data analysis, CAR-T cell engineering, or related immunotherapy research. You will be a proactive and independent scientist with excellent organisational, analytical, and problem-solving skills, capable of working effectively across multidisciplinary teams and international collaborations.
