Senior Research Scientist – Cell Models & Assay Development
Drive disease-relevant cell models and assays to advance genome editing research toward next-generation therapies for rare diseases.
About the Company
Avaron AB is a growing consultancy that matches your expertise with the market's most interesting assignments, offering a platform where your professional development is central.
About the Assignment
You will join an international Genome Engineering team focused on advancing genome editing and precision medicine for rare diseases. In a laboratory-based role, you will help develop and evaluate genome editing strategies by building relevant cell models, developing assays, and translating experimental outcomes into clear insights for cross-functional stakeholders.
Job Description
- Establish and maintain disease cell models using immortalized or iPSC cell lines
- Develop and run cellular and biochemical assays to evaluate therapeutic genome editing approaches in disease models
- Optimize genome engineering technologies to support effective gene editing in target cell and tissue types
- Analyze gene editing outcomes and assess efficacy in relevant models
- Document, interpret, and communicate results to stakeholders and partners
- Work independently in your research area and contribute to project teams
- Advise and train less experienced scientists; may take on a supervisory role (non line-management)
Requirements
- Strong hands-on experience establishing disease-relevant cell models using immortalized and/or iPSC cell lines
- Hands-on experience developing and running cellular and biochemical assays
- Experience analyzing and communicating experimental results to stakeholders and partners
- Ability to initiate, direct, and perform research experiments with limited supervision
Nice to have
- Experience in metabolism research
- Hands-on experience with CRISPR-Cas9 technologies
- Hands-on experience with protein quantification approaches (e.g., Western blot, ELISA) and/or measuring protein activity
- Experience working with lentiviral vectors for engineering cell models
Application
Selections are made on an ongoing basis, so we recommend that you apply as soon as possible.

Om Avaron AB
Avaron grundades med visionen om att skapa ett konsultbolag där kompetens och livskvalitet går hand i hand. Vi är ett nischat team som idag verkar inom komplexa miljöer såsom bank, finans och storskalig industri.
Som konsult hos oss får du det bästa av två världar: tryggheten och de spännande uppdragen hos stora, etablerade uppdragsgivare, kombinerat med det lilla bolagets snabbhet, transparens och personliga kontakt.
Vi tror inte på krångliga hierarkier eller onödig administration. Istället lägger vi kraften på det som faktiskt betyder något – att leverera värde i våra projekt och att se till att våra medarbetare trivs, utvecklas och har en balans i livet som fungerar på riktigt.
