Biomaterials Scientist

Transforming the Future of Women's Health

Gameto is a pioneering biotechnology company committed to advancing treatments for menopause, infertility, and other diseases affecting the female reproductive system.

We're seeking an experienced Scientist to lead cutting-edge research at the intersection of cell biology, biotechnology, and women's health, contributing directly to the development of novel cell therapies for menopause.

About the Role

As a Scientist at Gameto, you will play a pivotal role in developing innovative cell therapies for menopause, leveraging human pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and advanced encapsulation technologies.

Your key responsibilities will include:

• Designing and executing research projects focused on developing biomaterial-integrated cell therapies for menopause.
• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to advance project goals and align research with Gameto's platform.
• Developing scientific presentations and reports to communicate findings to internal teams, external collaborators, and stakeholders.
• Maintaining high-quality laboratory records and ensuring compliance with research standards, safety procedures, and protocols.
• Identifying emerging technologies and contributing to strategic planning for scientific initiatives.

Qualifications

To be successful in this role, you will need:

• Ph.D. in cell biology, molecular biology, biomedical engineering, or a related field.
• 0-2+ years of hands-on experience in a laboratory setting beyond the PhD, in either academic and industry environments.
• Proven expertise in biomaterials design and development, including microencapsulation technologies and instrumentation, core-shell structures, multi-layer and multi-component constructs, and tuning porosity for optimizing diffusion.
• Strong background in biomaterial characterization techniques, such as matrix structure analysis with electron microscopy and mechanical assessments using rheometry.
• Experience studying cell-substrate interactions and their role in biomaterial function and performance.
• Specific experience in biocompatibility and immune-evasive biomaterials is required, with preferred experience evaluating human and animal immunological responses.
• Preferred experience in cell-based analytical assays, such as ELISA and other biochemical assays, for secretome and diffusion analysis.

Why Join Us?

At Gameto, you will work alongside world-class scientists on groundbreaking cell therapies designed to revolutionize women's health. As a Scientist, you will have the freedom to explore new frontiers in cell biology, contributing to scientific breakthroughs that have the potential to transform menopause treatment and impact women's health globally.

This role offers opportunities for growth and strategic impact within a mission-driven, collaborative organization.
