About this position
This postdoctoral position at Linköping University is part of a research program in tumor immunology and immunotherapy focused on lymphoma. The project investigates how different immune cells within the tumor microenvironment influence treatment response and resistance to immunotherapy, using a combination of experimental mouse models, patient material, and advanced immunological and molecular methods.
The research environment is based in the MMV unit within BKV, and the advertised work sits within an ongoing research effort on tumor immunology and immunotherapy at the university. The project brings together in vivo experimentation, analysis of patient-derived samples, and high-dimensional profiling approaches to study immune mechanisms relevant to cancer therapy.
Methodologically, the position involves work with spectral flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, single-cell RNA sequencing, and functional assays. The successful candidate will contribute to a program that aims to clarify how immune responses in the tumor setting can be leveraged to improve cancer immunotherapy, particularly in lymphoma.
The position is research-intensive and also offers opportunities to present findings within the department and university, as well as at national and international scientific conferences. Teaching may be included to a limited extent as part of the appointment.
The role is tied to a donor-supported research environment and includes the possibility of research mobility and longer-term development opportunities within the foundation-supported framework.

What's required
Applicants must hold a PhD or an equivalent विदेशी degree by the time the appointment decision is made, and the degree must normally have been awarded no more than three years before the application deadline. The candidate must have been awarded the doctorate at a university other than Linköping University. Required qualifications include a PhD in tumor immunology or a related field, extensive experience with cell culture, immunological methods including multiparameter flow cytometry, molecular biology methods, and work with experimental mouse models, as well as very good spoken and written English. Experience in basic bioinformatics, including analysis and interpretation of single-cell RNA sequencing data or other high-dimensional data, is meritorious. Strong publication record, ability to independently plan and analyze complex experiments, teamwork skills, self-motivation, good organization, and strong communication skills are expected.
