Your Role and Responsibilities:
- Assist in the design and help to carry out experiments using ribosome and/or yeast display technologies for antibody discovery.
- Develop and optimize molecular biology protocols, including PCR, DNA/RNA purification and quantification, yeast handling, flow cytometry, and DNA library design and generation.
- Screen and select target-specific antibodies using display methods.
- Analyze and interpret experimental data, ensuring detailed and accurate record-keeping.
- Collaborate with team members to troubleshoot experimental challenges and enhance protocols.
- Present research findings at team meetings, contributing to ongoing scientific discussions.
Qualifications:
- Current enrollment in a Bachelor’s or Master’s program (preferably in molecular biology, biotechnology or immunology) and available for a minimum of 6 months.
- Basic understanding of molecular biology (e.g. PCR, DNA cloning) and microbiology techniques.
- Strong interest in antibody discovery technologies or a desire to learn about them.
- Analytical and problem-solving skills, with a high level of attention to detail.
- Ability to work independently and effectively within a team.
- Strong communication skills, both written and verbal.
