Position name: Postdoctoral Researcher

Job description:

IdiSNA is seeking to hire Postdoctoral personnel for the research Project “Immunotherapy with CAR-T cells against stromal antigens for the treatment of PDAC (CAR4PDAC) AC23_1/0005 and AECC Foundation (TRNSC235654PROS)”, under the supervision of Drs. Juan José Lasarte and Felipe Prosper. Its workplace will be CIMA. This Project is funded by the AECC Foundation, Carlos III Health Institute, the European Union – NextGenerationEU/PRTR.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and independent individual to join our project with a special approach on translational pancreatic cancer immunotherapy research. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) represents one of the most lethal and difficult to treat cases.

Required qualification:

PhD in health or biological sciences.

Main tasks to develop:

  • Work on pancreatic tumor models.
  • Generation and characterization of CART products at the cellular and molecular level. The use of new combinatorial therapies and dissection of the mechanism of action is proposed using high-throughput approaches (multiplex cytometry and IF, RNAseq, scRNAseq, proteomics and/or metabolomics) and targeted approaches.

Working conditions:

  • Full Time (40h/week)
  • Type of contract: Scientific and Technical Activities
