Background
In the Immunology group, we are developing cutting edge therapies to treat rare blood disorders. As a member of Immunology, you will be part of a highly collaborative, international group of research associates and scientists that are developing medicines for the future. We're currently looking for a research associate to assess efficacy, safety and translatability of gene therapies in rare blood disorders (bleeding/thrombotic disorders, anemia, etc..) by using different in vivo and ex vivo assays. Together with a larger team you will work with preclinical animal models and human patient material (blood and plasma) and characterize different gene therapy assets in hemostasis and thrombosis. The ex vivo and in vivo approaches will require you to be skilled in end-to-end experiments from the hands-on animal study, sample collection to different ex vivo assays.
The perfect candidate has a degree in immunology and extensive mouse work experience. Additionally, the person has an active LTK1, FELASA or equivalent certificate.
