Open Positions
Current vacancies in Lund Stem Cell Center Research Groups:
Project Assistant for the Department of Molecular Medicine and Gene Therapy
Professor Jonas Larsson's research group on Stem Cell Regulators is starting a new and exciting research project led by project leader Maria Jassinskaja, which focuses on studying and counteracting age-related blood diseases. The group is seeking a project assistant with a Master of Science (MSc) in Biotechnology or equivalent. As a project assistant, you will work with the following tasks:
- Handling and preparation of bone marrow and blood from mice for analysis
- Flow cytometry and FACS
- ELISA and other assays for protein quantification
- Cell culture of blood stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells
- Work with laboratory mice (breeding, killing, injections, sampling, genotyping)
- Analysis of data from flow cytometry, mass spectrometry and sequencing
- Ongoing compilation of the work and presentation of data for participating researchers
- Orders and inventory as well as organization of the laboratory
Application Deadline: 11 December, 2025
Project Assistant in Cell Reprogramming
The Cellular Reprogramming in Hematopoiesis and Immunity group, led by Professor Filipe Pereira, is now recruiting two full-time project assistants, with a Master's degree or equivalent in molecular biology or neuroscience or related field, who will work on using cellular reprogramming as an approach to study immune dysfunction.
The group studies how hematopoietic cells are specified, maintained, and ultimately modified or reversed. With inspiration from stem cell biology, immunology, and cancer research, we use an interdisciplinary approach to mechanistically understand hematopoietic and immune cell identities and translate our findings into novel gene and cell therapies.
Application Deadline: 08 December, 2025
