Phd / Postdoctoral Position In In Vivo Cancer Therapeutics (M/W/D)

We are recruiting a PhD student or postdoctoral researcher with a veterinary medicine or biology background for a fully funded basic/ translational cancer research position at LMU University Hospital Munich. The position focuses on in vivo tumor models to develop multimodal therapies combining thermosensitive liposomal drug delivery, regional hyperthermia, and immunotherapy/targeted approaches (CAR-T cells, small molecules). The goal is to improve intratumoral drug delivery and overcome resistance in “immunologically cold” tumors (Sarcoma, Pancreatic Cancer). The project is embedded in a highly motivated environment with direct links to clinical trials and biotech collaborations. We are looking for candidates with experience in animal models and a strong interest in oncology and immunology.

Your role:

• Design and conduct in vivo tumor studies
• Establish and manage tumor models
• Apply therapies and regional hyperthermia
• Analyze tumor biology and immune responses with standing cooperation partners

• Veterinary medicine or biology background
• Experience with cell culture and animal models preferred
• Strong interest in basic and translational cancer research
• Independent working style, fluent in english

• You will work in a highly motivated research environment with clinical relevance.
• The position offers a unique platform combining nanomedicine and hyperthermia.
• There is close collaboration with academic and biotech partners.
• In addition, excellent career development opportunities are available at one of the world’s leading university hospitals.

• Remuneration is based on the Collective Agreement for the Public Sector of the Länder (TV-L) including all allowances customary in the public sector.
