Project description
. PPS primarily serves academic research groups at Swedish universities but also collaborates with foreign universities and companies.
Work tasks
Practical laboratory work within PEP/PPS will include construct design, the application of various cloning techniques, intruduction of (point) mutations, planning of synthetic genes, protein expression in E. coli cell cultures and and protein purificationsusing various techniques. Additionally, the work includes documentation for customer billing of customers and the preparation of solutions and materials for sale. Communication and problem solving in consultation with users are key aspects of the daily work.
Qualifications
We are looking for a person with a PhD in biology, molecular biology or biochemistry. Documented, extensive professional experience with cloning, protein production, and purification by chromatography is required. The position requires the ability to plan and work independently, with high standards on thoroughness , responsibility, and customer oriented service thinking. As part of PEP/PPS, you need to be able to handle multiple tasks in parellel and should enjoy laboratory work.
Given that English is used for all documentation and much of the communication with our customers, proficiency in English and excellent communication skills and teamwork are essential. Technical skills and personal attributes will be of significant importance for the application. Experience with sterile techniques and working with plants, plant cell suspensions, yeast, or mammalian cells is highly advantageous. Postdoctoral experience and a publication record in the field are also considered merits.
