We are seeking to recruit a Research Assistant in Ocular Immunology at the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology.

We are testing new treatments to reduce eye inflammation and developing a cutting-edge human eye model, constructed in 3D to advance this research. Our goal is to create safer, effective therapies for people suffering from AU, reducing the risk of vision loss.

You must hold a Bachelor's Degree (or Master's) in Immunology, Biomedical Science, Biology, Biochemistry, or other closely related life sciences fields. You will have experience of handling and processing human tissue in a sterile environment, as well as experience of performing studies in vivo models of disease and have held/hold an animal licence. Excellent communication skills with the ability to present scientific data at internal lab meetings and represent the group at external conferences is essential. Experience of working in a research team and contributing new ideas for new research projects is desirable.

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
