Job description
Are you an enthusiastic lab-based cell and molecular biologist looking for a position where your technical expertise can make a difference to patients through experimental evaluation of potential new drug targets? If you are also familiar with immunology or respiratory biology, all the better! Come and join the team that passionately follows the science and puts the patients first.

We have an exciting opportunity for an engaged and passionate cell and molecular biologist to play an important part as a Research Scientist in our Target Science team within Early Respiratory and Immunology (R&I). The position will be placed at AstraZeneca in Gothenburg (Swe). In Target Science we focus on the identification and validation of novel targets and mechanisms addressing key biological disease drivers to enable a precision medicine approach to treating respiratory and immune-driven diseases. We are committed to selecting the right targets for the right patients.

In this role you'll be part of our broader Translational Science and Experimental Medicine (TSEM) organisation. Within TSEM, we are working in an open environment with a strong science focus and our work bridges basic science with clinical development. Our mission is to understand disease mechanisms at the molecular level closing the gap between bench science and bedside clinical practice.

Why AstraZeneca?
Our workforce reflects the people we serve - diversity is embedded in everything we do. We're at our best and most creative when drawing on our different views, experiences, and strengths. Thrive in an energising environment where challenging work goes hand in hand with opportunities for individual development.

Generate high quality experimental data that enables validation of potential new candidate targets.
Use and develop disease-relevant cell models to enable experimental validation of new targets.
Use standard cell and molecular biology methodology, for instance culture of mammalian cells and cell lines, qPCR, Western Blotting, ELISA, FACS and microscopy.
Analyse your data and present your conclusions to the team.

Qualifications
To take on this role, you need to have good networking and communication skills, with the ability to work efficiently in a team environment where you and your team support each other to deliver. You should also have:
PhD or corresponding research experience , a strong experimental drive and a background in basic science related to immunology or respiratory research.
Industry experience and a good understanding of the drug development process is an advantage.
Basic understanding of immunology and/or respiratory disease biology, including cell types, molecular pathways, and mechanisms.
Broad understanding of and the ability to apply state-of-the-art target validation technologies and methodologies along with excellent laboratory skills and the ability to experimentally address key scientific questions.

This is a laboratory-based role, requiring technical expertise and strong organisational skills. Your data will enable effective decision-making and ensure timely prosecution of pre-TSID projects. In this highly collaborative role, you need to have proven track record of scientific and experimental excellence and robust delivery of results.
