Use a repertoire of protein biochemistry assays (WB, ICW, IP, IHC, pull-down) to clearly define the MOA of novel molecules.
Identify cell lines relevant to targets and indication of interest and develop cell-based assays
Design, create and validate screening cell lines models using CRISPR or lentiviral technology.
Experience with transfection, transduction and electroporation technics for primary cell lines or difficult cell line models
Use literature survey to solve specific research problems.
Learn and implement new experimental techniques that can answer critical scientific questions and advance programs.
Manage and direct external resources (CRO) and collaborators.
Actively contribute to a focused, team-oriented atmosphere providing assistance and/or guidance to colleagues when needed.
Identify and implement scientific and logistical solutions in a multidisciplinary environment.
