Student Assistant Writing Literature Review

3 weken geleden

AmsterdamZuidoost, Nederland Amsterdam UMC Voltijd

**About the project**:
Autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), represent one of the greatest challenges in healthcare. While current medications cannot cure RA, they can help alleviate symptoms. However, many patients do not respond adequately to available treatments or experience severe side effects. Personalized medical therapies offer a promising solution, but their development requires a deeper understanding of how RA originates.

Genetic factors play a key role in the development of RA, with variation in the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) class II gene identified as the most significant genetic risk factor. Despite this, we still do not fully understand how HLA class II variation contributes to the onset of RA. HLA class II is crucial for regulating immune responses by presenting antigens to the immune system. While HLA class II is expressed on many cell types, the level of expression can vary.

Our research focuses on understanding the role and function of HLA class II in autoimmune diseases, including RA. As part of this project, we aim to write an English-language review summarizing the current knowledge on HLA class II and its involvement in RA.

**About the role**:
As a student assistant, you will assist with the literature search, organizing published findings, creating visually clear figures, and contributing to drafting the text. This is an excellent opportunity to gain writing and research experience alongside your studies, and it may even lead to a co-authored publication, which would be an impressive addition to your CV.

This position is available immediately and requires a commitment of 6-16 hours per week for a period of four months. Working hours are flexible and can be adjusted to fit your study schedule.

**Profile**:

- You are a biomedical student.
- You have excellent English writing skills.
- You possess strong organizational skills to effectively structure findings.
- You are available immediately for a minimum of 6-16 hours per week for a period of four months.
- Experience with reference management tools such as EndNote is a plus.

**Our offer**:

- A flying start to your career in scientific research.
- Working on large-scale and in-house research, with motivated colleagues from all over the world.
- You will be employed on-call as a research assistant by Amsterdam UMC Research BV.
- We offer an on-call contract for the position of research assistant with classification in salary scale 4.0: € 16.50 gross per hour (6-16 hours/week, maximum 4 months).
