Spain

This PhD project develops new immunotherapeutic tools for cancers with poor prognosis, with a focus on next-generation cellular immunotherapy and CAR T-cell platforms. The research will include the development of lentiviral vectors for TRUCKs whose expression is regulated by the tumor microenvironment, as well as studies of immune-synapse modulation to improve the effector function and persistence of CAR T cells. The project addresses refractory or relapsed B-cell malignancies, including aggress...

About this position

PhD project in neutrophil plasticity and immune-cell reprogramming

This PhD opportunity is part of the newly funded REG-HUB project, which asks how immune cells can be reprogrammed to change their responses to cancer and infection. The research will focus on how neutrophils acquire distinct functional identities and how these cellular programs can be manipulated to reshape immune responses.

The doctoral researcher will investigate the molecular mechanisms controlling neutrophil plasticity and functional specialization. The project combines single-cell genomics, high-dimensional cytometry, genetic perturbation and experimental disease models to examine immune-cell states and their roles in disease.

The PhD will be developed at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares and Universidad Carlos III de Madrid in Madrid, under the supervision of Iván Ballesteros. The work offers an interdisciplinary research environment centered on immunology, neutrophils, cancer research, infection and advanced experimental approaches.
