Your mission

• You will be a member of our interdisciplinary teams alongside colleagues from project management, protein production, structural biology, medicinal and computational chemistry.
• You will be responsible for providing approaches to challenging basic research questions by developing biochemical binding and functional assays in microplate format as well as biophysical assay formats for multi-membered biological systems.
• You will proactively contribute to defining research goals and experimental strategies with the goal of understanding biological mechanisms and to identify intervention points in the disease pathways.
• You will summarize your research results in recurring reports (quarterly and at project completion) and efficiently present the data in customer meetings and conferences.
• You will work within our state-of-the-art biochemistry and biophysics platform, instructing lab staff, performing experiments and analyzing data. 

Your profile
