Summary/Product
- The Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology Group in the Oncogenesis TRC focuses on delivering Client cancer therapeutics by engaging E3 ubiquitin ligases for targeted protein degradation.
- We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Associate Scientist or Associate Scientist with broad experience and a strong understanding of small-molecule drug discovery processes.
- The successful candidate will thrive in a collaborative, multi-disciplinary environment and will be responsible for: Developing and implementing robust cellular assays to support the discovery of small molecules as potential clinical candidates; and executing in vitro studies to elucidate the mechanisms of action of Client compounds.
- The desired candidate should have broad experience in cell biology, biochemistry, in vitro cell culture techniques and a willingness to learn and adapt.
- Responsibilities include utilizing cellular models to develop and execute cell line construction, gene editing and development of new in vitro assays.
- The candidate will actively contribute to discovery project teams, collaborate with scientists across various functional areas, and play a key role in project-based decision-making.
Responsibilities will include but are not limited to:
- Developing and implementing cell-based and biochemical assays to support the identification, optimization, and characterization of Client chemical matter.
- Designing and constructing cell lines and molecular tools for mechanism of action studies (MoA).
- Optimizing and assisting with DNA, RNA, and protein purification assays.
- Designing and conducting critical experiments by leveraging expertise in cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, and assay development to advance mechanism of action (MoA) studies.
- Analyzing and presenting data in a clear, organized and timely manner.
- Support biology needs for various projects and cross-functional drug discovery teams.
Requirements:
- Hands-on experience with mammalian cell culture, lentivirus preparation, cell line transfection, CRISPR KO nucleofection, siRNA and shRNA knockdowns, western blot and immunofluorescence analysis.
- Strong understanding of, and willingness to learn in vitro cell-based assays, including but not limited to cell proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis assays, as well as MSD, and Incucyte-based growth assays.
- Proficient in data analysis and management, including importing and exporting data to and from databases, with experience using a variety of scientific software applications.
- Ability to use, or quickly learn, laboratory automation equipment and to develop assays in 96- or 384-well formats.
- Familiarity with the discovery and optimization of Client small molecule entities, including lead identification and an understanding of key aspects of Structure-Activity Relationship (SAR) support using biological assays, is a plus.
- Experience with genome-wide screening techniques and genomics, including RNAseq, is a plus.
- Excellent communication, presentation, collaboration, and organizational skills.
- Strong attention to detail, with the ability to stay focused and deliver high-quality data in a timely and well-organized manner.
- Proven ability to manage multiple projects and thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic team environment, with flexibility and a positive attitude toward change.
