Kyverna Therapeutics, Inc., head quartered in the East Bay, is an emerging company developing an innovative new class of T cell-based therapies and cures for serious autoimmune diseases.
Autoimmune diseases result from a failure of the immune system to distinguish self from non-self, caused by autoreactive B cells and T cells attacking the body’s own tissues.
Kyverna’s innovative therapeutic strategy combines advanced T cell engineering and synthetic biology technologies to eliminate and suppress autoreactive immune cells which are the root cause of these diseases.
Kyverna Therapeutics is financed by two top venture capital firms and is located in the San Francisco East Bay.
Kyverna is seeking a highly motivated Senior Research Associate to join the growing Immunology Group and will participate in laboratory work to develop new engineered T cell therapeutics.
The responsibilities will include genetic modification of cell lines and primary human cells, and molecular and cellular phenotyping of immune cell function.
