Join the Cambridge-GSK Translational Immunology Collaboration (CG-TIC) as a Research Associate to develop and interrogate complex stem cell-based respiratory models and investigate pathogenic mechanisms in pulmonary fibrosis.
The role involves working with Professor Emma Rawlins and Dr Jenny Dickens to develop and apply these models, utilizing patient samples, spatial transcriptomic analysis, and publicly available datasets. The focus will be on the role of senescence in pulmonary fibrosis, with the research direction guided by early results.
The ideal candidate holds a PhD in cell or developmental biology, with expertise in organoid culture and/or molecular biology. Experience in lung pathology and/or senescence is advantageous, and bioinformatics support will be provided.
The role is based across research institutes on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus and in central Cambridge, with flexible and family-friendly working arrangements available. The position is fixed-term until 30 August 2028, with the possibility of extension.
The University of Cambridge actively supports equality, diversity, and inclusion, encouraging applications from all sections of society. The University requires all employees to be eligible to live and work in the UK.
