Job Summary

This role is part of an ERC Starting Grant-funded project titled 'Neuro-Immuno-Oncology and Cell Therapy' at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE). As a PhD student, you will focus on developing and preclinically evaluating novel cell therapy approaches for malignant brain tumors, specifically pediatric high-grade gliomas. Your daily work involves formulating scientific questions, planning and executing complex experiments using state-of-the-art techniques like microglia replacement strategies, and interpreting experimental data. You will be directly supervised by the head of the research group and participate in a structured doctoral program. This position is ideal for highly motivated researchers looking to make a significant scientific impact in pediatric oncology within a dynamic, collaborative team. The role offers a stimulating environment on the UKE campus, emphasizing scientific rigor and mutual respect, while providing the opportunity to contribute to life-saving cancer research.
