Your Role:
As a key member of our team, you will:

- Use multi-photon intravital microscopy and leverage cutting-edge rodent models to explore the therapeutical value of the next generation of macrophage aggregation inhibitors against scarring.
- Design and run untargeted screening experiments to identify novel inter-molecular interactions and additional therapeutic avenues for the future.
- Validate the results from pre-clinical animal models in primary human cells that we isolate from tissues directly from our surgical department.
- Thrive in our collaborative and progressive team environment and experience unwavering support from the PI and colleagues.

Your Qualifications:

- Hold a Master's degree.
- You are a team player.
- Possess a keen analytical mind.
