Position Summary
Editas is seeking a highly motivated Associate Scientist to join our Platform Technology Group. In this role, you will use various CRISPR delivery systems to execute high-throughput screens, and extract samples for NGS (DNA), RT-ddPCR (RNA) and protein (flow or Western blots/Jess automated blots) readouts to identify lead guides across our internal and external programs. You will track screens through the LIMs and document in your ELN and be responsible for the analysis and summary of the screens to inform follow-up experiments. An ideal candidate should have a strong background in immortalized (hepatocytes) and primary cell culture (HSC, T cells) and have experience screening in these cell types using various CRISPR delivery systems, including RNPs and LNPs.
Key Responsibilities:
- As the Associate Scientist I, Platform Technology, you will be responsible for:
- Lead guide design, screening and selection of lead guide using editing and/or function assays for internal and external partner programs.
- Analyze and summarize screening results into proper documentation (ELN, Study Reports)
- Implementation of a high-through LNP screening workflow, including automated LNP-formulations
- Assist with RNP complexation and perform QC for internal program use
Requirements
The ideal candidate will possess:
- B.S. in cell biology, or related field with 5+ years of relevant experience in industry; or M.S. in cell or molecular biology with 2+ years of relevant experience in industry
- Independently design and run screening experiments, extract gDNA, submit for sequencing, analyze, and present data
- Experience with mammalian cell culture, including immortalized and primary cells (ex. Liver Cells and HSCs)
- Proficient in executing and analyzing functional assays including flow cytometry and western blots
- Experience working with different screening modalities such as guide RNAs and LNPs and knowing how to formulate both RNP and LNPs
- Experience with data analysis software such as PRISM, Tableau, and FlowJo
- Familiar in molecular biology analyses such as qPCR and ddPCR
- Familiar working with lab automation including both liquid handling robots (Biomek I7s, Mantis, Echo) and plate readers (Envision)
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills fostering effective teamwork
