Join our Team!
The Moura Silva lab is currently recruiting scientists to fill different roles within the laboratory. If you are highly enthusiastic, motivated, positive, and talented; if you are curious about how the immune system can support tissue/organ function and metabolism (particularly related to tissue resident macrophage activity); and if you want to work in a dynamic, open and collaborative environment, then we are interested in you!
