Crynodeb
We are looking for an enthusiastic and self-motivated Postdoctoral Research Assistant to join the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, within the Nuffield Department of Orthopaedics, Rheumatology and Musculoskeletal Sciences at the University of Oxford.
You will be a member of a research group with responsibility for carrying out research to understand the role of NK cells and their regulation in cancer, with an emphasis in NK/macrophage crosstalk and tumour escape. The post holder will use a combination of flow cytometry, imaging and analysis of transcriptomics data to explore the mechanisms regulating NK cells in cancer and mice and humans.
You will manage your own academic research and administrative activities, this involves small scale project management, to co-ordinate multiple aspects of work to meet deadlines. You will contribute ideas for new research projects, present detailed research proposals to senior researchers and use specialist scientific equipment in a laboratory environment.
You will hold a PhD in immunology or immuno-oncology (or near completion) with experience in mouse model of tumour and possess sufficient specialist knowledge in tumour immunology, a broad knowledge on immune regulation during carcinogenesis. You will have the ability to manage own academic research and associated activities, have previous experience of contributing to publications/presentation and have excellent communication skills, including the ability to write for publication, present research proposals and results, and represent the research group at meetings.
This is a fixed-term, full time position for 2 years.
Due to the nature of the research at the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, this job will require additional security pre-employment checks:
• A satisfactory basic Disclosure and Barring Service check
• University security screening (eg identity checks)
The closing date for this position is 12 noon on Tuesday 11th February 2025. You will be required to upload a CV and supporting statement as part of your online application.
