  • Develop assays to measure hepatocyte function both ex vivo and in vivo
  • Evaluate epigenetic reprogramming payloads using ex vivo and in vivo functional assays to select therapeutic candidates
  • Develop methods for in vivo delivery of nucleic acid payloads to hepatocytes in collaboration with our Epigenetic Editing team
  • Analyze and interpret experimental data to drive pre-clinical decision making
Requirements
  • Ph.D. in cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry or a related field or equivalent industry experience (5+ years)
  • Experience with primary liver cell isolation and functional characterization
  • Experience working with mouse models of liver dysfunction
  • Experience with transgenic manipulation of liver cells either ex vivo or in vivo (e.g. using viral vectors, nucleic acid delivery)
