    Ph.D in a related field.

    Preferred Education and Experience:

    - Ph.D. in Biological Sciences, Biomedical Engineering, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Chemistry, or a closely related field.

     

    - Experience in protein/antibody engineering, molecular biology, biochemical or cell-based assay development, cell biology, and drug discovery.

     

    - Experience with mammalian cell engineering, CRISPR screens, and proteomics.

     

    - Excellent written and oral communication skills, with a proven track record of publishing scientific papers and delivering presentations.
