The NCRI Festival: Making cancer research better together will feature a number of topical sessions, panel discussions, debates and co-creation sessions on strategic topics, as well as proffered paper presentations highlighting the latest cancer research.
The International Society for Vaccines (ISV) is please collaborate with MJH Life Sciences to present a webinar on the topic ‘The Post COVID-19 Condition: Best Practices on Management for Clinicians and Patients’.
The British Society for Immunology is pleased to hold a free public webinar about the cutting-edge research to understand the immune response after COVID-19 vaccination in people who are immunosuppressed and how this can be managed.
BSI response to first published findings from the OCTAVE trial on immune responses generated by COVID vaccines in people with impaired immune systems
The University of Surrey is an international university with a world-class teaching and research profile and an enterprising spirit.
This post constitutes an important addition to the Section of Immunology, in the Department of Biochemical Sciences, one of four departments in the School that is home to 85 academic staff. In the most recent UK Research Excellence Framework, they were ranked eighth out of 94 institutions in the Allied Health Professions, Dentistry, Nursing, and Pharmacy category.
The University of Glasgow are seeking to appoint a Professor, tenable in the Institute of Infection, Immunity and Inflammation, on an open ended contract. The post will be based within the Centre for Immunobiology in the University of Glasgow at Gilmorehill campus.
The Molecular Biology Department at Princeton University invites applications in Immunology for a tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant Professor level. They are seeking an outstanding investigator using innovative approaches to study fundamental biological questions in the area of immunology, including but not limited to molecular or cellular immunology, adaptive or innate immunity, host-microbe interactions, hematopoiesis, systems immunology, and tumor immunology.
You will work on a project that aims to unravel important mechanisms that contribute to inflammatory bowel disease in humans. Work is based on our previous findings that monocytes and macrophages in the intestine of patients with active inflammatory bowel disease have diminished expression of a key cell surface receptor called integrin αvβ8, which is a crucial activator of the anti-inflammatory cytokine TGFβ.
You will work on a project that aims to unravel a novel mechanism in the control of memory T cell function during viral re-infection. It is based on exciting results from our preliminary studies, which show that a subset of CD4+ memory T cells selectively express an integrin, αvβ8, which allows them to activate the cytokine TGF-β. These cells appear to suppress CD8+ T cell function and clearance of a respiratory viral pathogen.
School of Medicine, Dentistry and Biomedical Sciences is currently seeking to appoint an exceptional candidate to the post of Research Fellow, to be a highly productive, ambitious, and collaborative member of the Inflammasome Biology research team led by Dr Rebecca Coll located at the Wellcome-Wolfson institute for Experimental Medicine. The position will involve working as part of a BBSRC-funded research programme to characterise the fundamental biology of the inflammasome sensor NLRP3.
