Consultant role for AstraZeneca.

Are you a motivated cell biologist with experience of in vitro work in molecular biology, omics and oligonucleotides? Do you also enjoy working hands-on in the lab with a great group of colleagues by your side? If yes, this might be the next position for you

Right now, we are looking for a highly engaged and enthusiastic cell biologist to join us as a Discovery Safety Scientist and complement us in our In Vitro Safety group at AstraZeneca in Gothenburg, Sweden. The ideal candidate will have a passion for in vitro lab based experimentation and analysis and value the utility of early drug safety investigations. We are looking for someone with a strong communication and collaboration drive, who can adopt a brave and forward-thinking approach to drive our predictive in vitro safety assay design to support drug discovery and development projects.

What you'll do:

Working in an industry-leading in vitro safety lab, you will work with internal research groups to identify potential off-target risks for siRNA/antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) projects. Develop in vitro assays to explore those potential off targets in a variety of different mammalian cell types via gene expression analysis. You will also be required to summarise safety related literature relating to modulation of off-target genes to help inform decisions and support the development of safer oligonucleotide-based drug products.

Why AstraZeneca?

We are working towards treating, preventing, modifying and even curing some of the world's most complex diseases. Here we have the potential to grow our pipeline and positively impact the lives of billions of patients around the world. With more than 2,400 employees from over 50 countries, our vibrant Gothenburg site is a truly inspiring place to work. Here, the history and future of scientific breakthroughs come together. We believe that the diversity of our people is crucial to bringing new discoveries to life.
