We are unafraid to take difficult technical risks, secure in the knowledge that with a clear understanding of what we are doing and with support from powerful modern tools, more progress is possible than might be immediately obvious. Regardless of role or team, the two most important factors we look for in a candidate are evidence of exceptional ability and the addition of positive energy to the group. As a small, very early stage team in a largely unstructured environment, the ability to independently orient yourself to the problems that need to be solved and then follow through is essential.
Science is looking for stem cell scientists enthusiastic about developing new therapeutics on the interface of regenerative medicine and brain-computer interfaces. Candidates can look forward to helping set up and scale a focused research program in collaboration with a world-class team of scientists and engineers with diverse technical backgrounds. Ideal candidates will have expertise in human iPS cells, genome editing techniques, direct differentiation protocols, or neural organoids.
Role responsibilities:
- Apply expertise in human iPS cells to develop new differentiation protocols to produce cells that meet design specifications
- Work with scientists and engineers to develop protocols for cell interfacing and transplantation
- Work with engineers to develop automation for large-scale production and differentiation of human iPS cells
- Collaborate with the technical team to help develop in vitro systems to model the company’s translational needs
Key qualifications:
- At least 3 years of hands on experience with human iPS cells, organoids, and/or modern cell biology / molecular genetics techniques
- A track record of excellence in your field as demonstrated by publications, patents, success with commercialization or translation, or other notable achievements
- Expertise in growing and reprogramming human induced pluripotent stem cells
- Expertise in genetic manipulation of human cells including viral transduction, CRISPR based gene editing, etc
