scientist in advanced drug delivery

Essential for the roles

• Masters or PhD degree in relevant scientific discipline (e.g., Analytical Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biotechnology or Pharmacy)
• Previous experience of working with biomacromolecules (e.g. RNA, proteins or peptides) or formulations of small molecules.
• Ability to work independently in a laboratory setting.

Desirable:

• Industrial experience in a pharmaceutical environment.

Soft skill:

• Scientific interest in exploratory formulation/characterization work related to complex molecules, delivery systems and new technologies.
• Ability and desire/willingness to effectively communicate, network and build collaborative relationships with partners across disciplines and cultures, internally and externally and independently lead and influence projects.

This is an exciting role where you will act as a key member of various project teams and provide your technical and scientific expertise into formulation design of biomacromolecules within the new modality area. As a Scientist you will support drug projects from a formulation perspective in the discovery phase of the drug development process, working from target identification to candidate drug nomination. The role covers development and characterization of formulations of oligonucleotides of high complexity. You will support drug projects within your own function in the preclinical phase and you will serve as a member of the cross-functional drug development project teams, representing your function and scientific area. You will work in close collaboration with formulation scientists, analytical chemists as well as biopharmaceutics experts in Gothenburg, Sweden but also with colleagues in Cambridge, UK and Waltham, US.
