Job Description:
With the significant expansion of our clinical development portfolio and associated expansion of our biomarker activities, we are now looking for a Bioinformatician to join our innovative and multi-disciplined Biomarker research team. Within the team we utilise the full spectrum of modern biological assay techniques (including genomics, proteomics, immune cell phenotyping,and single cell sequencing). The Successful Candidate Would Be Working To:
Additional Info:
Based in Abingdon (UK) and Philadelphia (USA) we're a privately owned biotechnology company developing innovative biological therapeutics for the treatment of a range of serious diseases. Our world-leading T cell receptor technology exploits the power of the body’s own immune system to find and kill diseased cells. We've established a robust technology platform which combines monoclonal T cell receptor (mTCR) targeting technology with an effector technology, anti-CD3 scFv, that catalyses the killing of the targeted diseased cells by the host’s own non-specific cytotoxic T cells. And we're developing a portfolio of products from the platform, called ImmTACs, for the treatment of cancer, chronic infectious disease and diabetes.[Click Here to Access the Original Job Post]
