Lead Research Scientist in Laboratory Studies
2 months ago
Job Overview
Position: Principal Scientist in Laboratory Research
Reporting To: Group Leader
Contract Type: This is a full-time, fixed-term position.
Research Group Overview
The research group focuses on elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying infection and immunity related to apicomplexan parasites, which pose significant public health challenges. The Plasmodium parasite is responsible for malaria, a major global health concern, while the Cryptosporidium parasite leads to cryptosporidiosis, a serious diarrheal disease affecting vulnerable populations. The laboratory employs various in vitro and in vivo models to simulate human infections, aiming to enhance the understanding necessary for developing new therapeutic interventions. Key methodologies utilized include genetic manipulation, flow cytometry, advanced microscopy techniques, and high-throughput screening.
Role Responsibilities
This position plays a crucial role in a funded partnership with a pharmaceutical company, focusing on innovative chemical biology strategies to identify tools for dissecting biological pathways and uncovering potential therapeutic targets across various disease contexts. Responsibilities include:
- Leading multiple research initiatives independently, with strategic guidance from the group leader.
- Presenting research findings at group meetings, seminars, and scientific conferences.
- Documenting research outcomes for publication and managing revisions.
- Overseeing laboratory operations, including database management, supply procurement, budget monitoring, and equipment maintenance.
- Training and mentoring junior lab personnel in essential techniques and laboratory practices.
- Collaborating with operational teams and participating in key meetings.
- Developing risk assessments and standard operating procedures while ensuring safety compliance.
- Supporting colleagues with their research projects.
- Managing long-term research collaborations and investigations.
- Providing expert guidance on methodology development and troubleshooting.
Qualifications and Skills
The ideal candidate should exemplify the core values of the organization:
Innovative; Collaborative; Transparent
Essential Qualifications:
- PhD or equivalent in a relevant scientific discipline with a minimum of 5 years of experience in a laboratory focused on parasitology.
- Proficient in culturing and maintaining malaria parasites, with experience in high biological safety environments.
- Demonstrated ability to independently lead exploratory drug discovery projects, including identifying lead candidates and conducting mode-of-action studies.
- Strong communication skills for liaising between diverse research teams and presenting findings clearly.
- Experience in training and supporting junior researchers to foster successful project outcomes.
About the Organization
The organization is at the forefront of biomedical research, promoting a culture of collaboration and innovation. With a diverse research portfolio, it integrates biomedical researchers with clinicians and applied scientists from various sectors.
We are committed to attracting top talent and providing an environment conducive to tackling challenging research questions. Our advanced technology platforms offer researchers access to cutting-edge tools and expertise.
