Position Summary

The Jarjour laboratory at Versiti Blood Research Institute is recruiting a Research Technologist I. Our laboratory was recently funded by a 5 year NIAID DP2 award. Our group focuses on tissue-resident immunity, which supports organ homeostasis and acts as a first line of defense against pathogens, tumors, and other dangers.

Our lab is collaborative and founded on respect, empowering every person to achieve their goals and to embrace curiosity as we explore the immune system.
