Passionate Research Scientist in Membrane Protein Science
Are you an enthusiastic scientist with skills in the field of membrane protein biology and have a passion to use your skills to contribute to the development of medicine for patients? Do you also want to join a place where our teamwork and collaborative atmosphere drives us forward? If yes, this might be the position for you!
Right now, we have an opportunity for a motivated Research Scientist to join the Membrane Protein Science Team at our vibrant AstraZeneca R&D site in Gothenburg, Sweden, for a one-year temporary position. In this role, you'll play an important part in the Discovery Biology department within the Discovery Sciences organisation.
This is a laboratory-based research position where you will apply your skills and knowledge in protein purification and recombinant protein expression, your curiosity, combined with strong team working ethics to support our early drug discovery projects. You will join our team whose remit is to deliver impactful recombinant membrane protein reagents used to power hit-finding, lead-generation, all the way to clinical candidate validation.
What you will do:
As a Research Scientist in the Membrane Protein Science Team, you will be generating tailored membrane protein reagents to support projects in all phases of the discovery process. The role involves expression screening of constructs in eukaryotic hosts, large scale expression, and purification of recombinant membrane proteins to supply bioreagents to assay development, affinity screening and structure-based drug discovery.
You will plan and conduct experimental strategies and generate, interpret and report scientific data autonomously or in collaboration with colleagues. In addition, you will contribute to advancing our capabilities in the production of recombinant membrane proteins used in early drug discovery.
Essential Requirements:
• Master's in molecular biology, Biotechnology, Biochemistry or a related field, and 2 years of relevant working experience.
• Expertise and proven knowledge of a wide range of methods and technologies applied to the expression, purification and characterisation of membrane proteins.
• Passion for experimental laboratory-based research.
Desirable:
• Experience in recombinant expression, purification, and pharmacology of GPCRs.
• Good understanding of drug discovery and how to contribute with scientific expertise within your own area of expertise to drive project progression.
• Expertise in cell culture for recombinant protein expression in eukaryotic cell types.
We also see our new colleague as a person who thinks in an unexpected way, holds enthusiasm and curiosity towards scientific questions and learning new skills. You have great laboratory skills and the ability to make scientific judgements, as well as work in a goal-oriented way. We believe that you can work in an independent way, but you also enjoy teamwork and can communicate and collaborate in a global setting with cross-functional groups.
Why AstraZeneca?
Join the team that follows the science unlike anywhere else. This is the place for curious minds. Dig deep into the biology of complex disease and uncover breakthroughs. With more than 2,800 employees from over than 70 countries, our vibrant Gothenburg site is a truly inspiring place to work. Here, the history and future of scientific breakthrough come together. We believe that the diversity of our people is crucial to bringing new discoveries to life.
