The Role

We are excited to announce that a research assistant/research associate position is available in the Haematopoiesis and Immunogenomics Lab (HI Lab) at Newcastle University, to cover maternity leave. You will join a research programme focused on understanding how human immunity is generated and regulated through haematopoiesis. Effective immune function depends on the coordinated production of specialised cell types, a process governed by complex networks of transcription factors. However, the mechanisms by which these factors maintain homeostasis in health while enabling adaptive responses to external challenges such as infection and cancer remain poorly defined.

Working within a multidisciplinary and translational research environment, the postholder will apply cutting-edge cell culture, transcriptomic, epigenetic, and genomic approaches to dissect transcription factor function and developmental pathways at single-cell resolution. This includes ...
