Descripción

The Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute (IJC) is a nonprofit research institute based in Barcelona and dedicated to advancing our understanding about leukaemia and related disorders, in partnership with the University of Barcelona and University Autònoma of Barcelona.


The IJC has laboratories in three clinical campuses:
i) Clinic Hospital, ii) Sant Pau Hospital and iii) Germans Trias i Pujol Hospital.

IJC serves as a collaborative hub for basic investigators and physicians to work together on fundamental biological and clinical aspects of leukaemia.

The IJC offers an excellent work environment built around a multi-disciplinary fusion of ideas and state-of-the-art facilities.

IJC Campus ICO-GTIP (Badalona) is looking for a motivated Lab Technician to join the (MDS Group)


Research Description
MDS are a heterogeneous group of haematological stem cell disorders resulting in bone marrow failure and blood cytopenias. MDS is one of the most common haematological malignancies of the elderly and its prevalence is increasing.


Our research is focused in unravelling the heterogeneity of Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) beyond symptomatic and morphological description. Despite recent scientific advances in the field, there are still no clear disease markers which facilitate diagnosis and prognosis in clinical practice. No single genetic aberration is common to all subtypes or specific to MDS and patients present varying proportions of abnormal cells with different genetic defects. A more detailed knowledge of the genome of leukemic cells will allow us to make more informed medical decisions, to initiate appropriate therapies earlier, to achieve higher probability of successful treatment resulting in better targeted therapies.

The contract is part of the research project no. HR funded by "la Caixa" Foundation.

Who we are?


Our mission is to carry out research into the basic, epidemiological, preventive, clinical and translational aspects of leukaemia and other hematologic malignancies.


The vision of the Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute is that research will identify new therapeutic targets and enable us to develop more precise and less aggressive treatments.

We aspire to understand the origin and development of leukaemia and other malignant haematological pathologies in order to be able to prevent them.

We will work for a future in which all leukaemia's will be curable.
