Dear All,The lab of Prof. Jim Kaufman at the University of Edinburgh is looking for a Research Technician to help us understand how chicken MHC molecules have such profound effects on resistance and susceptibility to economically-important diseases. We will begin by using protein expression systems and biochemical methods to produce reagents for identifying antigen-specific T lymphocytes and natural killer (NK) cells. The Opportunity:
You will join the research team with many years of experience with MHC molecules and now a unique set of viral peptides that allow us to produce peptide-MHC tetramers for flow cytometric analysis of vaccinated and infected chickens. Such analyses will revolutionise our understanding of important poultry diseases. Your skills and attributes for success: · Conceptual understanding of immunology and molecular biology · Some laboratory experience, if possible with protein expression and purification · Careful accurate work and good record keeping skills · Curiosity, enthusiasm and willingness to work hard · Ability to work independently and as part of a team Job Identification1212Job CategoryTechnicalLocations - Ashworth Laboratories, Edinburgh, EH9 3FL, GB Please Apply Before06/25/2021, 5:00 PM Job Schedule//Full timeContract TypeFixed Term Job Description Grade UE05 £23,067- £26,715 College of Science and Engineering School of Biological Sciences Institute of Infection and Immunology Research Fixed-term contract (4 years) Full-time, 35 hours per week Click here for a copy of the full job description Research Technician | | | | | | | | | | | Research Technician Grade UE05 £23,067- £26,715 College of Science and Engineering School of Biological Sciences Institute of Infect... | | | Thank you.Best regards,Samer ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 This message was issued to members of www.jiscmail.ac.uk/CCP4BB, a mailing list hosted by www.jiscmail.ac.uk, terms & conditions are available at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/policyandsecurity/
