Stem cell science and genome engineering
Thesis type: 60 credits
Project start: January 2023
Student location: On Site, Gothenburg Sweden
We are looking for Master students to our Applied Stem Cell Sciences team in AstraZeneca,Gothenburg! Would you be interested in this exciting opportunity to work side by side with experts in stem cell science, genome engineering and assay development and learn how to develop stem cell derived platforms to model disease or validate new potential drug targets? Do not hesitate to reach out to learn more!
The Applied Stem Cell Sciences Team in Discovery Sciences, AstraZeneca Gothenburg operates at the heart of drug discovery, providing primary- and stem cell models for target validation and modality testing. Working closely with our therapeutic functions, we develop, adapt and integrate appropriate cellular models, genome engineering strategies and assays, to deliver custom fit data packages that answer key project questions and progress drugs to patients.
Responsibilities
In our team, you will learn state of the art methodologies for stem cell maintenance and apply protocols for stem cell differentiation to selected cell types (cardiac, kidney, lung or neurons). You will apply CRISPR editing and learn how to assess editing efficiency and cell health. Downstream work would encompass applying a cellular differentiation protocol to validate the functional consequence of a specific genetic modification. In short, you will aquire key skillsets in the field of stem cell engineering, which can take you to your next position in academia or industry.
