The Reagents and Assay Development department (RAD) of Discovery Sciences, is responsible for the generation of novel cellular reagents and assays to support projects in all phases of the drug discovery pipeline. We are seeking a Senior Research Scientist to join our cellular RAD team in Gothenburg Sweden, where we focus on delivering reagents and assays primarily for Cardiovascular and Metabolic diseases and Respiratory and Autoimmunity.

Your main tasks will be:

• cell line generation using traditional and precise genome editing approaches
• cellular assay development
• target identification and target validation
• to be an authority in the arena of cell science and precise genome editing
• coach and support more junior scientists by advising and challenging them and by providing expert advice
• develop cellular reagents for target based approaches and phenotypic assays, target identification, target validation
• perform confirmation of cellular/genetic manipulation and functional validation of engineered cells
• perform target identification and target validation studies in early projects
• development of stable cell lines utilising traditional, viral and Precise Genome Editing (CRISPR) techniques
• transient and stable transfection utilising different technologies such as electroporation (Maxcyte, Nucleofector, Amaxa), lipid and PEI
