Job Description:
We are seeking a highly motivated and collaborative Associate Scientist to join our Dermatology Immunology group within Discovery Research. This individual will support early- through late-stage discovery programs by supporting complex in vitro experiments to study skin inflammation and immune biology. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience in primary cell culture functional immunoassays and an interest in complex 3D models like spheroids organoids or organ-on-chip systems.
Responsibilities:
- Role is primarily lab-based. 90% onsite for experimental execution 10% for data analysis and study design.
- Support and execute in vitro assays using primary skin and immune cells to model inflammatory disease mechanisms.
- Perform proliferation differentiation and co-culture experiments. Support immunoassays such as ELISA MSD and luminescent readouts.
- Work with or support 3D skin models organoids or microfluidic-based organ-on-chip systems. Experience is a plus but not required.
- Analyze and interpret experimental results. Document work clearly in electronic lab notebooks and present findings to the team.
- Utilize cell culture pipetting qPCR immunoassays and support flow cytometry or imaging-based analysis where appropriate.
- Adapt existing SOPs and contribute to optimization of assay workflows.
- Partner with scientists across dermatology immunology and other functional teams to support program goals.
Requirements:
- Bachelors degree with 3 years of relevant lab experience or masters degree with 0 years experience.
- Bachelors degree with 5 years of experience or masters degree with 2 years of experience.
- Experience working with skin-relevant cell types (keratinocytes fibroblasts endothelial and immune cells).
- Familiarity with 3D or microfluidic systems (e.g. spheroids organoids organ-on-chip).
- Experience with immunoassays such as ELISA MSD or luminescence platforms.
- Exposure to flow cytometry imaging is preferred but not required.
- Strong data organization communication and teamwork skills.
