Research Assistant II – Cell Culture and Blood Clotting On Chip
Research and Technology DevelopmentWe are currently seeking a Research Assistant II to significantly contribute to a research program funded by the Wellcome Leap, “The missed vital sign”, involving the use of human Organ Chips to advance knowledge and development of therapeutics for heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB). We will be developing a human Organ Chip model of HMB and use it to identify causal factors, as well as discover new non-hormonal HMB therapeutics using multi-omics analysis in combination with an artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled computational approach. As part of the Bioinspired Therapeutics & Diagnostics platform and reporting to the Scientist, you will carry out various cell-based assays and manage primary cell cultures, including, but not limited to, primary epithelial and endothelial cell cultures and on chip cultures. Furthermore, you will execute studies on blood perfusion in these human organ chip models of HMB and analyze differences between them and healthy models. You will be expected to learn new skills, and troubleshoot any technical issues that arise, and contribute intellectually to the project. [001609SR]

Research Assistant III- Diagnostics Accelerator
Research and Technology DevelopmentWe are looking for a Research Assistant III to join our Diagnostics Accelerator initiative. You will work with a multidisciplinary team on developing multi-omic technologies for investigating pathological states from human biofluids. You will contribute to the development of novel methods that will be used across different diseases to develop new types of liquid biopsy tests. Although you will work within a team and receive significant experimental and computational training, you will also have significant opportunities for scientific independence, and previous RAs working with us have contributed to multiple publications and presented their work at international conferences.
