hela Sverige Do you have a background in Cell Biology, aren't afraid of trying new paths and doing things differently? Do you also feel passionate about the possibilities of science to change lives? Perfect, this position might be your next challenge at AstraZeneca!
At AstraZeneca in Gothenburg we are now looking for a motivated and engaged Senior Scientist to join our Cell Assay Development team. This is an exciting opportunity for you to join us as a lab-based scientist to develop state-of-the-art cell-based screening assays. These assays will be used in detailed biological mechanism-of-action studies to support our small molecule and PROTACs development in all phases of AstraZeneca's drug discovery pipeline.
We value our differences because we recognize that a team is at its most creative when it is made up of people who think differently from one another, in an environment where different views and perspectives are welcomed and valued. This is how we foster continuous innovation, constant learning and growth for us as individuals and for our patients.
What you will do:
As a Senior Scientist in cellular assay development, you'll play a pivotal role in channeling our scientific capabilities to make a positive impact on changing patients' lives. You will work within Discovery Sciences, part of AstraZeneca's BioPharmaceuticals organisation, which focuses on scientific advances in drug discovery across therapeutic areas including, respiratory and inflammation (R&I) and cardiovascular, renal and metabolism (CVRM).
To be successful in the role as Senior Scientist we believe you are a highly motivated scientist with a passion to make a difference for patients all over the world. Along with this we see you as a person who enjoys collaboration and team working, who holds networking skills with experience of interacting effectively across interfaces of functions, fields, culture, and expertise. This goes hand in hand with your problem-solving skills, strong delivery focus and communication skills.
Essential in the role:
* PhD in Biology, Pharmacology, Cell biology or a related field or a BSc/MSc degree with significant proven experience, preferably in the pharmaceutical or biotechnology industry
* Strong experience in cellular biology techniques applied to development of physiologically relevant cellular assays including imaging assays
* A practical understanding of a wide range of cellular assay methods and technologies including imaging (e.g., fluorescence, luminescence, target engagement techniques, plate-based automation) as applied to biological targets for compound profiling and screening
Desirable in the role:
* Expertise in a range of cell biology techniques, to include cloning, transfection methods, gene expression knock-down (RNAi or other) and endogenous gene tagging
* Expertise in the design, development and validation of cellular assays for compound profiling including PROTACS
* Good publication records in peer-reviewed journals
* Track record of identifying and adopting scientific and technical advances
Why AstraZeneca?
Be part of a dedicated Research & Development team. Fuelled by our commitment to help more patients, strengthen our pipeline and grow our area. It's our combination of curiosity and courage that drives us, inspired by the possibility of doing things that have never been done before. Empowered to step up, we free ourselves from fear of failure to dig deep into the biology of complex diseases and make bold decisions. Celebrating our successes and failures along the way.
So, what's next! Are you already imagining yourself joining our team? Excellent, we invite you to apply already today!
We look forward to get to know you better, but remember to send in your application no later than 18th June, 2021.
