The Giovanni Armenise-Harvard laboratory of Immunity and Cancer, at the Italian Institute for Genomic Medicine (IIGM) and IRCCS FPO Candiolo (Turin), Italy, is seeking for a highly motivated Postdoc in Immunology and Epigenetics.
Research: The lab addresses fundamental aspects of immune responses, related to memory T cell differentiation and long-term protective immunity. This research aims to understand how T lymphocytes integrate complex environmental stimuli and translate these signals into specific epigenetic and differentiation programs, which specify T cell fate commitment and function. The research’s goal is to use this knowledge to develop novel strategies for the prevention and treatment of cancer, immunotherapy and vaccine development.
To achieve these goals, they combine a variety of approaches, genetic and genomic techniques, including high throughput cell-based assays, multiparametric flowcytometry, single cell multi-omics and epigenetics tools, in the context of human cancer biology.
