About this role
This scientist has a proven track record of cellular and molecular proteomics, analytical chemistry and/or biochemistry to play a key supporting role in the MS-based proteomics group in the Exploratory Biomarkers team. The scientist will contribute to the development of proteomic workflows using robotics and automated liquid handlers with the outcome to accelerating and alleviating the manual-intensive aspects of sample prep increasing throughput and depth. The candidate will apply new and established workflows to biological systems and various sample types (tissues, biofluids and cells) for biomarker discovery and mechanism of action studies.
