It began with a story. 

The auditorium was dark, except for a spot of light illuminating a corner of the stage where we could see a young woman in a red dress with a book in her hands, sitting in a red armchair beside a little table holding a mug and some books, a reading-lamp, and a stack of books lying on an orange carpet.

The storyteller was Saheli Roy, a PhD student in Neuroscience at the Champalimaud Foundation and one of the co-hosts for the evening. She read the beginning of an Indian story about kingdoms and pretenders to the throne. 

Offer Description

Seeking a dedicated Cell Culture Research Technician to join our dynamic team to advance medical knowledge and make a positive impact on healthcare.

Main duties will include: 

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) can be an extremely incapacitating neuropsychiatric condition. The symptoms of people who suffer from OCD can entail washing their hands or showering over and over again, repeatedly checking whether they switched off the gas in the kitchen or locked their street door. In the most extreme cases, this takes up so much of their time and energy that they become unable to leave their house, to work, to develop meaningful relationships and to interact with other people.
