About the Role

This is an exciting opportunity for two motivated Postdoctoral Scientists to join our team and contribute to our research in cancer immunology. You will work closely with our team to explore novel CAR-T cell strategies to improve outcomes in patients with solid cancers. You will use gene editing approaches and in vitro and in vivo models to address current hurdles to CAR-T cell efficacy in solid tumours.
