The Cellular Immunology Group, head by Dr Federica Benvenuti at ICGEB, Trieste, Italy (www.icgeb.org) is seeking for a motivated young scientist (at pre or post-doctoral level) to join the group in 2017.

The laboratory is interested in understanding the cellular basis of T cell priming by dendritic cells with the major goal of developing strategies to manipulate DCs antigen presenting properties in clinical settings. The candidate will be involved in a research project that aims at understanding the suppression of dendritic cells functions during tumor progression. The work will incorporate a combination of in vivo studies and in vitro analysis of DCs isolated from primary tumors as well as the development of mouse models of spontaneous carcinogenesis.

Requirements for this position include a recent University degree with a focus in Immunology or a PhD in Immunology, background in cancer immunotherapy and strong motivation and commitment to research. Training in multicolor FACS analysis, cell sorting, RT-PCR, cytokine analysis, in vitro and in vivo T cell priming assays are highly preferred.

Interested candidates will undergo a selection procedure to apply for an Arturo Falaschi pre or post-doctoral fellowship, depending on their qualifications.

TO APPLY FOR THIS POSITION, e-mail a cover letter, CV and a list of three references to benvenut@icgeb.org
