Thesis Work: Genome-wide NGS approaches for CRISPR off-target detection
Are you passionate for the development of advanced Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies to support gene editing programs strategy? Would you like to apply expertise to innovate sequencing-based techniques in a company that turns ideas into life changing medicines? Then AstraZeneca might be of interest to you!
Thesis type: 60 credits
Project start: January 2024
Student location: On Site, Gothenburg Sweden
Translation of CRISPR-Cas9 technologies into therapies requires sensitive detection of unintended mutations across the genome. Developing state-of-the-art NGS-based methods to discover CRISPR off-targets genome-wide is of high priority for developing safe editing programs at Discovery Sciences.
To help us in this challenge, we are looking for a highly motivated and engaged Master student to join our collaborative Disease Molecular Profiling team - NGS/Transcriptomics Function at AstraZeneca, in Gothenburg. You will be part of a dynamic team working on transformative NGS platforms to enable acceleration and innovation of our R&D pipeline.
To this end, you will be actively involved in the establishment and evaluation of customized NGS workflows, as well as in the enhancement and troubleshooting of existing ones. An important part of your work will include data interpretation in collaboration with our team of computational biologists and effective communication of progress and milestones to stakeholders.
You will be expected to work collaboratively within a multient, sharing insights and contributing to the discussion of the team's projects. Keeping up to date with relevant scientific literature and technological advancements in the CRISPR field will be part of your tasks.
At AstraZeneca, all of our employees make a difference to patients' lives every day. We operate in more than 100 countries around the world and are one of Sweden's most important export companies.
With more than 2,400 employees from 50 countries, the vibrant Gothenburg site helps to support the entire life-cycle of AstraZeneca medicines, from drug discovery and clinical trials, to global commercialisation and product maintenance. Gothenburg is one of AstraZeneca's three strategic, global R&D centres, alongside Cambridge and Gaithersburg, and plays a central role in our mission to deliver life-changing medicines to patients.
