About us

The UCL Cancer Institute is the hub for cancer research at University College London, one of the World's leading universities. The Institute brings together over 400 talented scientists working to translate research discoveries into kinder, more effective therapies for cancer patients. In particular, it fosters links between basic cancer researchers across biomedicine and with the clinical activities of our four partner hospital trusts, known as UCL Partners (University College London Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Trust, the Royal Free Hampstead NHS Trust, and Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust), as well as the London School of Pharmacy and Cancer Research UK. Further Information about the UCL Cancer Institute can be found on our website https://www.ucl.ac.uk/cancer/.

About the role

A major focus of Dr. Roddie’s UCL Translation Team at the UCL Cancer Institute is the manipulation of T-cells for therapeutic applications. The main purpose of this position is to genetically modify CAR T cells using molecular biology and gene editing approaches, including CRISPR-mediated gene knockout, to investigate and enhance CAR T-cell function. The role involves performing a range of molecular and cellular assays to assess CAR T-cell performance, including their proliferation, cytotoxicity, persistence, phenotype, and other functional characteristics. Training in relevant techniques will be provided.

The successful candidate will be part of a collaborative group of scientists and will be expected to actively assist and participate in all aspects of the research, as well as in the basic maintenance of the laboratory.

This is position will be funded for 6 months in the first instance, with the possibility of extension.

Applications should include a CV and a Cover Letter: In the Cover Letter, please provide evidence of the essential and desirable criteria in the Person Specification part of the Job Description.

About you

You will hold a degree in Biological Sciences or a related discipline and have experience in aseptic cell culture and routine molecular biology techniques. An interest in immunotherapy, particularly CAR T-cell research, would be advantageous.

The successful candidate will be a motivated and collaborative team player with a commitment to high-quality research, continuous learning, and working effectively with colleagues from diverse backgrounds. Experience of molecular cloning, nucleic acid extraction, flow cytometry, or a postgraduate qualification would be beneficial.
