🎓 Required qualifications

A master's degree or engineering degree equivalent in one of the following fields is required:

* Immunology
* Cell & Molecular Biology
* Biotechnology
* Biomedical Sciences

With a strong interest in Translational Immunology.

Previous experience in:
Cell Therapy, Immunotherapy, Human Tregs, CAR-T or Flow Cytometry is preferred.

The team is also looking for an enthusiastic candidate who is willing to learn new techniques and work independently in the laboratory.

📄 Application requirements

Must submit:

* CV
* Cover Letter
* 2–3 References
