We would like an enthusiastic team-player, contributing to an international team of scientists investigating the mechanisms of disease progression in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and lymphoma.

You will regularly interact with international collaborators from the EU, particularly Spain and Italy, who are an active part of the ECRIN-M3 programme. You will have relevant laboratory experience, display a high level of motivation and have the ability to work flexibly as part of a team as well as independently.
You will be required to process primary leukaemia/lymphoma cells from a range of patient samples as well as performing immunophenotyping, calcium flux and IGHV mutational analysis and other genetic analyses to a high standard. You will be required to comply with meticulous record-keeping and database management, while working closely with the ECRIN-M3 data-managers and lab-based scientists, for all processes undertaken, as well as fully comply with legal requirements, GCP and GLP.
Training will be provided where necessary. You will require a good understanding of the current health and safety regulations.
