InternEntryOthersCancer ImmunotherapyBiologicsMasters
Description
We are looking for a highly motivated Master student to join our Biology team for a 6–12 month Master thesis project in the field of cancer immunotherapy, with a focus on bispecific antibody therapeutics. In this project, you will support the design, engineering, and functional characterization of next-generation antibody-based molecules, including bispecific and immunomodulatory formats. Your work will contribute to the preclinical evaluation of novel therapeutic candidates. You will apply state-of-the-art techniques in molecular cloning, protein expression, and purification, and perform a range of in vitro assays (e.g., T cell activation, cytotoxicity, flow cytometry) to assess biological activity. During the project, you may also be exposed to in vivo testing of selected candidates in relevant models to evaluate translational potential. This thesis project offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience in an industrial biotech setting while being embedded in a translational research framework.
Requirements
Currently enrolled in a master’s program in Immunology, Biotechnology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, or a related field. Strong interest in cancer immunotherapy and therapeutic antibody development. Some practical experience in molecular biology, protein biochemistry, or cell culture is a plus. Familiarity with flow cytometry or immune assays is desirable but not required. Eagerness to learn, good organizational skills, and a proactive mindset. Very good command of English (written and spoken).
