Hands‑on experience with animal handling and modern tumour models
Enthusiasm for setting up and learning new techniques in the laboratory
High level of accuracy, data documentation and organisation skills
Desirable additional qualifications:
Experience with complex co‑culture and/or organoid models
Experience with (advanced) fluorescence microscopy
Experience with histology
Experience with –omics technologies
Bioinformatic skills
We particularly welcome applications from candidates who:
