Department of Pathology, Central Cambridge

The McGovern lab is seeking a talented and motivated Computational Research Associate to join their research group. Our research aims to understand the role of mononuclear phagocytes in autoimmunity and placental development.

This is a grade G7 Research Associate post, dependant on previous skills and experience.

The McGovern Lab:

Our team focuses on characterising human mononuclear phagocytes, crucial immune cells distributed across all tissues in the body. These cells perform vital functions in tissue development and function, fighting infection and resolving inflammation. We utilise a range of technologies to develop our understanding of the ontogeny and function of these cells including proteomic, transcriptomic and epigenetic approaches. We utilise cells isolated from primary human tissue samples and organoid systems. As part of our team, you will contribute to groundbreaking research in understanding the properties of mononuclear phagocytes in both health and disease.
