Scientist – Biology

Do you want to join a team that is developing technologies that will shape the future of drug discovery?
Would you like an environment where you could make a major impact on a critically important industry?
Do you want to join a company that is finding solutions for critical disease areas of unmet need?

We are seeking biomedical scientists who enjoy working on hard to treat diseases. As a part of our multi-disciplinary team, you will take on a variety of challenging research questions using methods that include in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo disease models. In the process, you will help find effective treatments for a wide variety of diseases with critical unmet need. Our ongoing drug discovery programs include cardiovascular disease, solid-tumor cancer and diabetic macular edema with other programs to follow.

Disease Models
We are looking for someone with strong research background in the development of in vivo models and demonstrated proficiency in experimental procedures including micro-surgeries. In this role, you will be responsible for designing, developing and conducting experiments to test the in vivo efficacy of novel candidates in our drug programs. Responsibilities will include thorough analysis of outcomes and the planning of follow-up action.

Disease Pathway Analysis
You will test the efficacy of novel compounds in treating major diseases. You will develop in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo tests in order to elucidate the mechanism of action of these compounds. You will also be validating disease pathways to initiate new drug discovery programs.
As a member of our drug discovery team, you will be a part of a collaborative and fast-paced, multi-disciplinary research environment, working closely with our biologists and molecular modeling experts.
