Your Profile

Knowledge of immunology and/ or oncology would be a plus. Your excellent communication skills enable you to successfully contribute to interdisciplinary projects as a part of our team. You are interested in translating scientific findings into clinical applications and you take careful processing and documenting of your results for granted.
