About MIMO
MIMO Biosciences is a biotechnology company and spin-off from the University of Navarra, founded in 2024, focused on developing advanced human-relevant experimental models to improve the prediction of drug efficacy, safety, and translational outcomes in biomedical research. By leveraging unique genetically engineered murine systems, patient-derived xenograft (PDX) technologies, humanized mouse models, and organoid platforms, MIMO Biosciences aims to bridge the gap between preclinical discovery and clinical application.
The company collaborates with leading pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, as well as top academic institutions, in the fields of hematological malignancies and immune disorders, from multiple myeloma, lymphoma and leukemia to autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
As MIMO Biosciences continues to expand, we are seeking talented and highly motivated scientists and postdoctoral fellows to join our multidisciplinary research team.
Position overview
We are seeking outstanding scientists to lead vigorous and innovative research projects focused on understanding the biological mechanisms that determine patient responses to immunotherapies and other targeted therapies in hematological malignancies and immune-mediated disorders.
Successful candidates will contribute to both basic and translational research programs using cutting-edge experimental systems, including genetically engineered mouse models, humanized immune system models, patient-derived xenografts (PDXs), organoids, and advanced immune profiling technologies.
Research projects will focus on:
* Immunotherapy response and resistance mechanisms
* T-cell and NK-cell biology
* Tumor and immune microenvironment interactions
* Autoimmune and inflammatory disorders
* CAR T-cell and T-cell engager (TCE) therapies
* Biomarker discovery and translational immunology
* Multi-omics and computational approaches for patient stratification
The successful applicants will work closely with a collaborative team of scientists across hematology, immunology, oncology, molecular biology, bioinformatics, and translational medicine.
Required qualifications
Applicants must hold a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in Immunology, Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, or related disciplines. Candidates should demonstrate scientific creativity, productivity, and the ability to work independently in a highly collaborative environment.
Required experience and technical skills:
* Strong background in immunology and immune profiling
* Experience with flow cytometry and multicolor immunophenotyping
* T-cell and/or NK-cell functional assays
* Mammalian tissue culture, including primary human and mouse cells
* Experience with experimental animal models and animal handling procedures
* Ability to independently design, execute, troubleshoot, and interpret experiments
* Strong publication record in peer-reviewed journals
* Excellent verbal and written communication skills
* Ability to work effectively both independently and within multidisciplinary teams
Preferred qualifications:
* Knowledge of humanized mouse models or PDX systems or humanized organoids
* Experience with single-cell or multi-omics technologies
* Bioinformatics or computational biology experience is considered a plus
Compensation and benefits:
MIMO Biosciences offers a highly competitive salary package commensurate with qualifications and experience, along with opportunities for scientific growth within a dynamic and rapidly expanding biotechnology company.
