**Introduction**:
Effective treatment options are limited when cancer reaches its metastatic state and spreads to other organs. Immunotherapy represents a promising breakthrough for cancer treatment by activating the body’s own immune system while also raising a number of ethical, epistemological and societal questions. Mac4Me adopts an ambitious approach by integrating methods of participatory research and knowledge sharing (epistemic inclusion), actively involving patients and their relatives, care takers and medical practitioners, from the very beginning of the project.

**Job description**:
Objectives of the project
Harvest results of previous projects. Build a knowledge coalition to develop a holistic, inclusive approach to metastatic disease that incorporates the priorities, knowledge, and experience of researchers, patients, caretakers, to make research more responsive to values and priorities of end users and develop realistic scenarios (responsible expectation management). Contribute to methodology development in participatory research for responsible innovation.

Expected Results:
Our aspiration to involve knowledge, priorities and values of end-users in metastasis research aims to strengthen the positive societal impact of knowledge development and contributes to a broader movement of efforts to develop a interactive, holistic and inclusive approach to research (building on approaches such as ELSA, RRI and PPI). Our work aims to bridge the gap between lab and lifeworld via a holistic inclusive approach consisting of mutual learning exercises, facilitating and empowering interaction between research consortium and future users (patients, patient organizations, physicians, nurses, clinicians, family members, journalists), fostering trust in science by making research more responsive to societal priorities. We also aim to contribute to methodology development for participatory research.

**Job requirements**:

- MA in philosophy with coursework or thesis project in research ethics, science and technology studies, (social) epistemology, philosophy of science, philosophy of social science, feminist philosophy, applied ethics, and/or other relevant subfields
- Keen interest in the ethical and epistemological challenges emerging in life sciences research
- Motivation to engage in transdisciplinary research, combining philosophy and the life sciences, and combining conceptual and empirical research
- Excellent speaking and writing skills in English and willingness to learn Dutch
- Capacity for conceptual work, presenting, planning, and organizing
- An interest to work in teams, build local and international networks, and co-organize research workshops and public events.
