Job Description:
We are seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Research Scientist in Human T-cell biology at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (CAMS) Oxford Institute. The laboratory of Dr. Pablo F. Cespedes will develop the next generation of ex vivo methods to study how post-translational modifications (PTMs) influence broader aspects of T-cell communication.
As part of our team, you will develop a thorough knowledge of cell-cell communication and maintain awareness of the latest technological developments in the fields of microscopy, flow cytometry, and cellular and molecular immunology. You will refine standard operating procedures (SOPs) for the use of human ex vivo models, including 3D organoids and histocultures.
You will be responsible for planning and conducting cutting-edge research to test hypotheses and analyze scientific data from various sources, reviewing and refining working hypotheses as appropriate. You will maintain a good laboratory environment supporting collaboration, welcoming and respecting diversity while promoting inclusion and equality.
It is essential that you hold a relevant PhD/DPhil (or are close to completion) in T-cell biology and have experience in flow cytometry, T-cell isolation, expansion (or cloning), fluorescence microscopy, and single-cell RNA sequencing pipelines. You will have experience in the culture of primary cells and the handling of human tissues, such as blood, palatine tonsil, spleen, and gut biopsies and resections. Excellent communication skills, both oral and written, are critical to maintain an effective team dynamic and for the preparation of publications, research proposals, and results, as well as representing the research group at international conferences.
