hela Sverige At AstraZeneca we turn ideas into life changing medicines and strive to continuously meet the unmet needs of patients worldwide. Working here means being entrepreneurial, thinking big, and working together to make the impossible a reality. If you are swift to action, confident to lead, willing to collaborate, and curious about what science can do, then you're our kind of person.
We continually push the boundaries of science to deliver medicines that treat diseases across our main therapy areas. Through our integration with Alexion, this now includes expanding the limits of scientific research to better understand rare diseases and to discover new life-changing treatments for them.
Pharmaceutical Sciences is a department within AstraZeneca Biopharmaceutical R&D. The Pharmaceutical Sciences' mission is to transform molecules into investigational medicines, meeting the unmet needs of future patients. Advanced Drug Delivery is a department in Pharmaceutical Sciences. Our portfolio of projects spans traditional small molecules, proteins, oligonucleotides to RNA based therapeutics across AstraZeneca's therapy areas and our mission is to transform diverse modalities into investigational medicines.
We are now looking for a senior drug delivery scientist with strong expertise in the formulation and analytical sciences to work on delivering new modalities for gene therapy.
The position is based at our vibrant R&D site in Gothenburg, Sweden.
What You'll do
In this role you will be responsible for design and characterisation of formulations for the delivery of nucleic acids. This will involve working with advanced drug delivery platforms such as lipid nanoparticles. Working in close collaboration with peers in the advanced drug delivery group, you will continually be improving our end to end formulation design, characterisation and testing capabilities. As part of the team you will serve on global drug project teams working with scientists across UK, US and Sweden. You will also be expected to be part of and drive science networks and provide high quality scientific input across the organisation.
We expect you to be an active member of the external scientific community enhancing our reputation as scientific leaders in the advanced drug delivery field.
We are seeking an ambitious scientist with a strong foundation in the delivery sciences and a specialisation in the formulation and analytical sciences as well as a great passion for experimental science.
