Research Assistant in Immunology

1 week ago


Oxford, United Kingdom University of Oxford Full time

We wish to hire a talented and highly motivated Research Assistant with expertise in protein production, folding and analyses to investigate the translational implications of mechanisms underlying human tissue T cell immunity.

Graham Ogg’s group is studying lipid-specific T cells in the blood and skin in order to define disease pathogenesis and to identify targets for future therapeutic intervention.

The data will be used to characterise responses to novel antigens, as well as defining the responding T cells and TCR for future therapeutic development, including for inflammatory disease and cancer.

The work will be undertaken in the MRC Human Immunology Unit at the Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine with collaborative work at other sites across the science campus.

The successful applicant will have extensive experience of protein production and analyses, ideally related to HLA molecules and T cell receptors conducting research in a dynamic and highly collaborative environment of an internationally leading research institute. They will benefit from the institute and wider university expertise in immunology, computational biology, machine-learning and big-data science. There will be opportunities to develop new models to explain differential responses of T cell populations during homeostasis, inflammation and cancer.

**What We Offer**
- Flexible working
- An excellent contributory pension scheme
- 38 days’ annual leave (including bank holidays)
- A comprehensive range of childcare services
- Family leave schemes
- Cycle loan scheme
- Discounted bus travel and Season Ticket travel loans

The post is full-time and fixed-term until 31st March 2024.

The supporting statement must explain how you meet each of the selection criteria for the post using examples of your skills and experience.
