Jetzt als PhD student (m/f/d) bei Universitätsklinikum Freiburg durchstarten – Standort Freiburg

The lab has a focus on translational immunological research. We are particularly interested in the mechanisms regulating T cells in chronic infection, cancer and autoimmune disease, with a focus on understanding T cell exhaustion. The aim of the funded project is to access antigen-specific T-cell responses linked to outcome and pathogenesis of chronic viral infections. Your work will unravel diverging mechanisms of antigen-specific CD8+ T cell adaptation and dysfunction and contribute to a better understanding of human immune responses with implications for therapeutic strategies.
