Om tjänsten
We are looking for an expert in the area of murine transgenesis and its application in both transgenic animal model generation and in vivo phenotyping. This person will devise, champion and develop scientific areas aligned with project needs and be an authority in the area of molecular biology, in vivo science and precise genome editing - to lead this from a lab-based perspective and to make significant contributions to the practical delivery of AstraZeneca project goals.

Dina arbetsuppgifter i huvudsak
You will provide disciplinary scientific leadership and represent the department at internal interdisciplinary meetings in addition to external meetings and to publish novel science in high impact journals. Along with this, you will propose experimental strategies, troubleshoot problems and make significant contributions to the practical delivery of projects in compliance with AstraZeneca corporate responsibility policies and relevant safety standards.

The following skills are highly desirable:
• Molecular biology expertise and experience of working with mouse embryonic stem cells.
• Working knowledge of the latest precise genome engineering tools both in vitro and in vivo.
• Expertise in the generation and phenotypic characterization of transgenic animal models

The following skills would be an advantage:
• Experience in metabolic phenotyping platforms and analysis of metabolic function in mouse models e.g. performing indirect calorimetry and intraperitoneal glucose tolerance tests (IPGTT) to diagnose metabolic function in genetically-engineered mice.
• Experience of murine behavioural phenotyping
• Experience of preclinical mouse models for therapeutic gene editing delivery and efficacy approaches.

Minimum experience
• You should have a Ph.D. degree or corresponding experience in a relevant scientific discipline with experience in drug discovery or, alternatively, a first degree and significant relevant experience in drug discovery.
