This is an Innovate UK funded post in partnership with an external biotech partner. The aim of the project is to develop an in vitro 3D brain tumour co-culture model. The post holder will use this to test and investigate novel immunomodulators of the tumour microenvironment as cancer therapeutics. Candidates must hold a PhD (or be near to completion of a PhD or equivalent) in cancer biology, tumour immunology, tumour microenvironment or related area. Candidate should also have experience of a range of techniques, with a focus on 3D cell culture models, tumour-immune cell co-culture, flow cytometry and western blotting. The position will involve immunohistochemistry, RNA-SEQ, and reverse phase protein arrays. It would be advantageous to have experience of in vitro 3D co-culture model development, cell signalling, immune checkpoint inhibitors, glioblastomas, and a good understanding of tumour hypoxia and acidosis. You will work within a highly skilled, collaborative and exciting research team, focussing on developing novel approaches to targeting the therapy-resistant hypoxic and acidic regions frequently found within tumours.

This full time post (36.25 hours per week) is available to 29th February 2024. Job share arrangements may be considered.
