PhD Research Scientist - Biotechnology

RNA therapeutics or nanoparticle design for drug delivery. Is it to design therapies that can penetrate biological barriers (e.g. the blood brain barrier) to drug targets far beyond the reach of all other medicines? We are working with a rapidly growing biotech based in Cambridge that has just raised £20 million as part of their series A (and have deep relationships with big pharma) to build the next generation of nanotherapies. They have developed unique polymer technology that has the potential to release genetic medicines on CNS or fibrotic disease targets far beyond difficult biological barriers. Not only will you be undertaking cutting edge science with significant potential for patient benefit, but you’ll be able to learn from fantastic scientists while being exposed to exceptional development and progression opportunities.
