Unlock the Future of Paediatric Cancer Treatment

Deep Science Ventures is seeking a highly skilled and ambitious Co-Founder in Residence to join our team and contribute to the development of novel immune-related therapies for paediatric cancer. As a key member of our venture creation programme, you will work closely with our team of experts to identify and address the challenges in paediatric oncology, with a focus on harnessing the unique features of childhood tumours to revolutionise treatment.

About the Opportunity

Paediatric cancer is a significant global health challenge, with limited treatment options available. Current therapies often have severe side effects and are not tailored to the specific needs of children. Our approach aims to overcome these limitations by developing a technology that targets the childhood immune system and re-directs it against tumours. This innovative approach has the potential to cure paediatric cancer and prevent future re-emergence.

Key Responsibilities
  • Contribute to the development of novel immune-related therapies for paediatric cancer
  • Work closely with our team of experts to identify and address the challenges in paediatric oncology
  • Collaborate with industry partners and key opinion leaders to design strategies with curative therapeutic potential

We are seeking a highly skilled and ambitious individual with a strong background in immunology, vaccinology, or a related field. Essential requirements include:

  • PhD and/or MD background in immunology, vaccinology, or a related field
  • Expertise in vaccinology and the stimulation of immune response
  • (Pre)clinical drug or vaccine development in immunology, infectious disease, or cancer
  • Driven by unsolved challenges, particularly in the fields of immunology, immunotherapy, and paediatrics
  • Innovative, creative, and guided by first-principles thinking
  • Clear entrepreneurial spirit and the desire to create a company aiming to develop curative immune-related solutions for paediatric cancer

Preferred requirements include:

  • Experience in or a deep understanding of paediatric immunology
  • Experience in or a deep understanding of tumour microenvironment biology and immuno-oncology
  • Experience with in vivo engineering
  • Experience working with and optimising the delivery of different therapeutic modalities

As a Co-Founder in Residence at Deep Science Ventures, you will have access to:

  • Up to £250k in investment to incorporate the new venture and develop early proof-of-concept data
  • Guaranteed income of £4,166 per month paid as a consultancy fee until the company is launched and the pre-seed investment is secured
  • Majority equity stake in the new company for you and your co-founders
  • Continuous post-spinout support, including fundraising, commercial partnerships, recruitment, and team-building
