Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics – Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust
We are offering an excellent opportunity for a highly motivated biological science graduate to join our busy laboratory as an STP trainee in Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics (H&I). The Transplantation Laboratory at Manchester Royal Infirmary supports regional kidney, pancreas, islet, heart, lung, cornea and haemopoietic stem cell transplant programmes and HLA typing for disease diagnosis and management. Training rotations will involve working in other blood sciences departments on-site within the Trust.
We are one of the largest H&I laboratories in the UK with an excellent training record and we take pride in encouraging career focused scientists to fulfil their potential.
Post qualification and registration with the HCPC, our centre offers excellent opportunities for higher training for individuals with a drive to study for HSST and FRCPath qualifications.
