This position in the Novina Lab in the Department of Cancer Immunology and Virology will assist scientists in performing scientific research, development and/or clinical tasks of varying complexity. In general, this position will assist in the set up, operation and maintenance of laboratory instruments and equipment, monitoring experiments, making observations and calculating and recording results, and making presentations. Our Research T cells play a central role in our immune system’s responses to infections. Recent clinical studies have shown tremendous promise that the immune system can be “taught” to reject tumors as if the tumors were infections. One way to teach T cells is to “engineer” them to bind specific proteins found on the surface of tumors. An especially exciting example of this strategy is the use of “chimeric antigen receptor” (CAR) T cells. Clinical trials have shown that CAR T cells can selectively bind to a protein found on only antibody producing cells (B...
