Gene Weaver is looking for new talent for our next generation gene editing technology offering high efficiency and precision gene editing capabilities, superseding the current capabilities of CRISPR, utilising a unique enzymatic system under development by the original founder of the RPA technology, Dr Niall Armes.
Based in Applied R&D. Specifically the role will include practising a range of molecular biology techniques including PCR, cloning, and protein expression and purification. In addition, this role will include participation in the development of novel in vitro assays for nucleic acid recombination including novel sequencing protocols and novel reporter assays. This role requires familiarity with a research environment and is suited to someone with a minimum of two years’ experience.
Aptitude required: to be able to work flexibly within a small group as well as sufficiently independent to work without supervision when necessary.
Technical ability: this role requires an appropriate degree in biomolecular science experience in molecular biology techniques.
Specifically, the role will include practising a range of molecular biology techniques including PCR, cloning, and protein expression and purification with the aim of carrying out independent mini projects once training is complete.
