About the role

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to study the regulation of immune responses in lymph nodes. The project focuses on cellular and molecular mechanisms that mediate the transfer of lymph-borne antigens from lymphatic vessels into lymph nodes and the effects of antigens on lymph node lymphatic endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and resident myeloid cells. Our long-term goal is to develop novel approaches for locally modulating immune responses within specific lymph nodes during cancer, inflammatory diseases, and vaccination. The successful candidate performs laboratory experiments, including in vivo models, analyzes tissue and cell samples using imaging and omics technologies, develops new experimental methods, supervises doctoral researchers and other students, and prepares scientific publications. They will also have opportunities to develop independent projects and novel research approaches, as well as participate in teaching activities that support career progression beyond the postdoctoral stage. Most work will be conducted on-site at the University of Turku campus.
