Research Associate ex vivo/in vivo models (m/f/d)

Research Associate ex vivo/in vivo models in Rare Blood Disorders (m/f/d) – ELISA / Gsuite / LTK module 1 / hemostasis / English

Project:
For our customer a big pharmaceutical company in Basel we are looking for a highly qualified Research Associate ex vivo/in vivo models in Rare Blood Disorders (m/f/d).

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 validate and apply ex vivo/in vivo models to study rare blood disorders (bleeding/thrombotic disorders, anemia, etc..). Together with a larger team you will work with human patient material (blood and plasma) and characterize and implement animal models of hemostasis and thrombosis. The ex vivo and in vivo approaches will require you to apply sophisticated imaging and molecular techniques to these systems.

The perfect candidate:
The perfect candidate is someone who wants to influence their own development. They enjoy teamwork, diligence and efficiency. They are looking for a company where they receive the opportunity to pursue their interests across functions and geographies. Working in a multicultural environment motivates them. As a fast learner they actively drive the quality of the requirements.

Tasks & Responsibilities:

• Apply novel in vitro, in vivo and ex vivo systems for the discovery and validation of new targets or therapeutic agents that can be leveraged to address rare blood disorders
  * Preparation, handling and in vitro/ex vivo testing of patient-derived material, including blood and plasma
  * Characterize and implement mouse models of hemostasis (bleeding) and thrombosis for the validation and characterization of novel therapeutic agents in the area of rare blood disorders
  * Collaboratively design, execute, and interpret data from preclinical ex vivo/in vivo studies in the area of rare blood disorders
  * Continuously improve test systems, treatment, analysis, and data evaluation.
  * Contribute to work process optimization including data capture, storage and assay automation
  * Work closely with all members of the group, share duties, maintain a clean work environment and actively contribute to the positive work atmosphere within the group

Must Haves:

• MSc/BSc in Life Sciences (cellular/ molecular biology, pharmacology, immunology), or completion of an apprenticeship for a research associate with a min. 3 years of academic or industry experience
  * Min. of 3 years lab experience
  * Experience in applying in vitro analytical technologies such ELISA and biochemical assays for data analysis and result evaluations
  * Skillfully able to interact effectively with people, strong commitment to teamwork
  * Gsuite, MS Office skills
  * You can communicate fluently in English
  * Excellent data management and record-keeping skills

Nice to have:

• LTK module 1, FELASA or equivalent certification
  * Technical and theoretical background/expertise in hemostasis and thrombosis
  * Mouse work experience; managing transgenic animals, injections, tissue sampling and processing, characterization of disease models
