We are looking for support in our Tumor Biology and Vaccines unit to start as soon as possible. The successful candidate will work with preclinical mouse tumor models to develop innovative cancer immunotherapies based on understanding and exploiting of cancer and immune cells metabolism.
Our research interests include the characterization of tumor-infiltrating immune cell as well as metabolic manipulation of the tumor microenvironment during therapy, involving cancer mRNA vaccines and other cancer therapies. Our multidisciplinary team is responsible for a large variety of different projects within TRON and with external collaborators. Methodologically, we primarily focus on mouse cancer models and the immune cells within the tumor microenvironment, with additional in vitro analysis via Seahorse, flow cytometry and preparation of cell suspension for metabolic analysis.
