Research Associate position in regulatory T cell biology in autoimmunity

Publicerad 2024-09-24

This Research Associate position is funded by the Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Society UK for 36 months to investigate the mechanisms underlying the defective function of follicular regulatory T cells (Tfr) in people living with multiple sclerosis. The candidate will join Dr Dominguez-Villar’s laboratory at Imperial College London, which focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms that maintain human regulatory T cell identity and plasticity and the regulation of CD4+ T cell responses in autoimmune and infectious diseases.


We are looking for a passionate, self-motivated and dynamic postdoctoral research associate with expertise in in vitro T cell and Treg culture, as well as expertise in in vivo mouse models of multiple sclerosis (EAE).


  • PhD in immunology or related discipline.
  • Practical experience in high parameter flow cytometry.
  • Practical experience in T cell and Treg isolation, culture and in vitro assessment of functions.
  • Practical experience in in vivo models of multiple sclerosis including immunization, monitoring, evaluation, organ dissection.
  • Knowledge of basic cellular and molecular mechanisms in immune responses.
  • Knowledge of statistical analysis tools.

  • The opportunity to be part of an exciting project with translational potential, using both mouse models and samples from patients.
  • The opportunity to continue your career at a world-leading institution and be part of our mission to continue science for humanity.
  • Grow your career: Gain access to Imperial’s sector-leading as well as opportunities for promotion and progression
  • Sector-leading salary and remuneration package (including 39 days off a year and generous pension schemes).
