Finland, Helsingfors (Helsinki)

FIMM is currently seeking a MSCA Doctoral Researcher for spatial multiplexed immunofluorescence profiling of metastases of different cancer types in a team led by Dr. Teijo Pellinen

We are seeking a highly motivated Doctoral Researcher for a fully funded, 4-year research position in multiplexed immunofluorescence profiling of metastases from various cancer types. This project, part of the Mac4Me consortium, involves advanced tissue imaging and computational analysis to study immune-tumor cell interactions in clinical samples, including brain, bone, and liver metastases. You will work closely with Genevia Technologies Oy (Finland) and The Norwegian Radium Hospital (Norway) to integrate imaging data with multi-omics datasets using cutting-edge AI tools.

This position is part of the European Union's Horizon Europe MSCA Doctoral Network programme, which focuses on identifying new immunotherapy targets through innovative research on tumor-immune system interactions. The Mac4Me network provides a unique training environment, combining expertise from 18 academic and industry partners across Europe. Successful candidates will benefit from interdisciplinary training, research visits, and opportunities for skill development in fields ranging from systems biology to AI-driven cancer research.

Work tasks

As a Doctoral Researcher in Dr. Teijo Pellinen’s team, you will apply innovative multiplexed immunofluorescence technology to spatially profile cells and their interactions in intact tumor tissue sections. You will analyze imaging data to uncover clinically relevant patterns by linking the imaging results to patient health records using advanced computational methods. More information on Dr. Pellinen's work can be found here (Teijo Pellinen — University of Helsinki).

Key objectives of this PhD project include:


	Designing and constructing tissue microarrays (TMAs) with appropriate control tissues, including tumor tissues (prostate cancer, breast cancer, neuroblastoma), metastasis target tissues (bone, liver, brain), and tissues with high immune cell content (e.g., lymph node, appendix).
	Collecting and organizing clinical and pathological data associated with these tissue samples into a shared clinical database.
	Developing and optimizing antibody panels for multiplex fluorescence immunohistochemistry (mfIHC).
	Performing mfIHC on TMAs and analyzing the resulting high-resolution images for single-cell phenotyping.


Expected results

This project will provide crucial insights into immune cell behaviour within metastases from prostate cancer, breast cancer, and neuroblastoma. Through single-cell spatial imaging, you will identify the key immune cell subsets and their activation or inhibition states in clinical metastasis samples. The project will also reveal the interactions and proximities between immune cells and tumor cells, offering a deeper understanding of immune responses in metastatic environments.

The imaging data will be systematically indexed and integrated with clinical datasets. You will collaborate with partners from Genevia Technologies Oy and The Norwegian Radium Hospital to merge your results with additional multi-omics data. These analyses will contribute to identifying new immune targets and potential therapeutic approaches for cancer treatment.

The Doctoral Researcher will be based at the Institute for Molecular Medicine Finland (FIMM), University of Helsinki, and work within a vibrant multidisciplinary team embedded in the wider context of Dr. Olli Kallioniemi’s Precision Systems Medicine group at the University of Helsinki (Precision systems medicine | University of Helsinki).

United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi

Description

NYU Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) supports an extensive program of arts, including an MFA program, majors in multiple arts programs, as well as a museum venue, and a range of academic exhibition spaces, and a campus collection. For the visual arts, there are two main areas of activity: the formal curriculum of the MFA and BA programs, and the museum and gallery exhibition programs that connect the university to the broader public.

The Art Gallery at NYUAD presents an ambitious program of museum  exhibitions of art and culture from contemporary and historical periods in its main venue, alongside exhibitions of research and emerging artists in its Project Space. The Art Gallery department also oversees a campus collection, and a variety of art installations on and off campus. Alongside this, the Arts and Humanities Division prepares students for an MFA in art and media, and multiple BAs in the arts. Exhibitions and installation of art make up a core part of this education, in classrooms, student exhibition spaces, and in the Project Space.

As part of the arts team at NYUAD, the Art Preparator has two primary avenues of responsibility, both of which involve safe and efficient movement, housing, and installation of artwork. The first is for the preparation of museum exhibitions, and care of the collection, according to museum best-practice standards, as well as for the range of exhibitions and arts projects on campus. The second is an equally essential aspect of this position: working with and mentoring students and student assistants, both at the Graduate and Undergraduate levels, to give them practical ‘hands-on’ experience in the realms of art handling, collections management, and formal exhibition presentation. Through the process of doing the work itself with the students, the Art Preparator is instructing students in the technical and conceptual issues at stake when art is prepared and exhibited.

A typical year cycle sees two month-long museum installs in the Art Gallery, and 15-20 smaller rotations of community and academic exhibitions in the Project Space and elsewhere, including off-campus, and a variety of ad-hoc exhibition projects as they arise. The Art Preparator will work independently, and where appropriate, be supported by, and manage, a team of contract art handlers to deliver these projects. The art install team will vary according to the project, and work in close collaboration with both the Art Gallery and the Arts & Humanities production teams.

The duties include highly skilled technical care, handling, and installation of art ranging from traditional 2D and 3D works to immersive multimedia and site-specific installations. The exhibition spaces include a museum venue (the Art Gallery, which will eventually mount 3 major exhibitions per year), the Project Space (10-15 smaller exhibitions per year), the Crit Room (for student class review), the Cube (a student public exhibition space), the Arts & Humanities Research Walls, and across campus as it relates to the campus collection and other projects as needed, such as the annual Christo Award, MFA and Senior Capstone exhibitions, and smaller installations of work that may occur each semester.

The Preparator is responsible for maintaining professional museum standards of care, as well as efficient and well-coordinated installation team integration. Under the direction of the Head of Arts Instructors (Division of Art and Humanities) together with the Head of Exhibitions and Collection Management (“HECM” for the Art Gallery department), this work includes planning and executing projects in a range of areas such as: the preparation of gallery spaces and objects for exhibitions; fabrication, installation, and de-installation of temporary exhibitions; and supervising the contract art handlers to ensure the exhibition schedule milestones are met.

Additionally, the Preparator conducts and manages the cleaning and care of objects from the campus collection, as well as the functioning of art storage. The Preparator is also responsible for care, tracking, and upkeep of art handling inventory, supplies, and technologies.
