Senior Scientist- Cell Therapy (Seattle, WA)

We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Scientist to join our Research team as a part of Regeneron Cell Medicines. You will help support CAR-T/TCR pre-clinical research to grow our cellular immunotherapy programs, singularly focused on delivering transformative medicine to patients.

As a Senior Scientist, a typical day might include:

• Independently designing and carrying out studies that provide the scientific basis for making data-driven decisions, (e.g., selection of top CAR constructs based on in vitro CAR-T cell characterization)

• Performing standard T cell characterization assays (e.g., co-cultures to evaluate antigen-dependent cytokine release, target cell cytotoxicity, and T cell proliferation)

• Designing and optimizing novel assays for interrogation of CAR T cell function

• Contributing to new technology assessment and implementation

• Collaborating productively and creatively with other scientists to develop and test novel CAR designs

• Analyzing, interpreting, and presenting data at working groups and departmental seminars, as well as representing the Research team in a variety of cross-functional forums

This role might be for you if you:

• Have an ability and desire to generate results in multiple projects simultaneously and proven ability to effectively plan and organize work activities to meet schedules and deadlines

• Are experienced presenting data in a variety of team settings and actively participate in departmental meetings as well as cross-functional research teams

• Have a passion for addressing the critical unmet medical needs of patients

In order to be considered for this role, you must have a Ph.D. with 0-3 years or a BS/MS and 8-10+ years of relevant experience in immunology, molecular biology, or related field. We are looking for someone with a strong scientific foundation in or proximal to the CAR-T cell field and sound technical fundamentals in basic immunology and molecular biology workflows. Must have experience with mammalian cell culture and expertise in standard immunological assays (flow cytometry, ELISA, MSD/Luminex). Expertise in molecular biology techniques (cloning, cell line engineering) also required. Familiarity with CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing a plus. Experience with FlowJo, Graphpad Prism, and Geneious preferred.
