We are looking for a Scientist to join the Viral Vector Applications section in the Genomics Medicine Op Co at R&D in Uppsala. The section is made up by 12 researchers that are working in the areas of protein purification, filtration and analysis of viral vectors, plasmids, and nuclei acids, working with product development to get the right products to the customers. We are now looking for an expert in analytical methods used for AAV (focus ELISA/q PCR).

What you'll do:
As a Scientist you will be an expert in analytical methods that are needed for analysis of titer/viral genomes content for viral vectors via ELISA, q PCR, dd PCR etc.
Work will be conducted in new product development, product care and market support projects with customer needs in focus.
You will be conducting analysis work in various projects. This includes being involved in method development and method verification as well as maintaining instrumentation and creating standard operating procedures and work close to QA and production with validations of analytical methods.
