PhD Fellow in Tumor Biology | Tromsø, Troms, Norway | The Arctic University of Norway

Position:	PhD Fellow in Tumor Biology
Institution:	The Arctic University of Norway
Location:	Tromsø, Troms, Norway
Duties:	The successful candidate will work on the project titled “The oral mucosa as a facilitator of cancer immune escape”. The oral cavity is a special and tightly controlled immune microenvironment. Cancers arising in the oral cavity are far more aggressive than their counterparts in the skin, implying a role of the tumour microenvironment. The body’s first encounter with ingested substances is through the oral cavity. Substances include potentially dangerous and pathogenic microbes. However, most of what we ingest is innocuous. The immune system therefore needs to be delicately balanced between tolerance to food and activation towards unwanted intruders. The common belief is that our intestines are the main drivers of building tolerance towards ingested substances and commensal bacteria
Requirements:	This position requires a master’s degree within biomedicine, or other educations that have been approved as equivalent. Qualification with a master’s degree is required before commencement in the position
