hela Sverige Are you an enthusiastic scientist with a background in molecular/cell biology and experience with mammalian cell cultures? Would you like to use your scientific skills to push the boundaries of science and join a fantastic team of scientists that share you passion for what you do? If yes, this might be the opportunity for you!
As our new Research Scientist, you will be a part of the Therapeutic Editing team in the Department of Genome Engineering. The role is based in Gothenburg, Sweden, where you will join an international team that develops novel genome engineering technologies and applies these technologies for generation of therapeutic agents. We provide a stimulating environment for innovation and translational application of genome engineering tools, to turn them into effective and safe medicines.
Thrive in a place where the brightest and most curious minds seamlessly come together in our inclusive environment.
What you will do:
You will bring your cell or molecular biology experience and hands-on skills to develop novel genome editing approaches that can potentially lead to therapies. You will be a key member in cross-functional therapeutic editing project teams with various backgrounds and expertise, where you will contribute to development of gene editing strategies.
Accountabilities will include experimental evaluation of innovative optimization of genome engineering technologies to facilitate effective gene editing in target cell & tissue types, optimizing relevant assays, analyzing gene editing outcomes, documenting, interpreting, and communicating results to appropriate partners. You will contribute to collaborations with other functions to develop and test novel CRISPR delivery strategies - and to develop next generation sequencing approaches to analyze gene editing outcomes. This is a very exciting role that will give you exceptional self-development opportunities.
Essential for the role:
* Master's degree in molecular/cell biology, genetics, or relevant areas.
* Molecular biology or cell biology background and relevant hands-on skills.
* Experience with mammalian cell cultures, ideally iPS models and differentiation.
We look for our new colleague who hold enthusiasm and curiosity towards scientific questions, who think in an unexpected way and enjoys learning new skills. You can work in an independent and goal-oriented way, but you also enjoy teamwork and have the ability to communicate and collaborate in a global setting with cross-functional groups.
Desirable for the role:
* Expertise in cellular assays, such as genetic manipulation and evaluating genetic & functional outcomes using state-of-art tools including next generation sequencing, qPCR/RNA-seq etc.
* Solid understanding of genome engineering.
* At least 1 year of lab-based research or industry experience.
