In vivo support for mouse and rat studies. We're looking for someone with strong common sense and commitment to animal welfare.
Ideal candidate: Strong background in in vivo research techniques with hands-on experience handling rodents in a professional lab or industry setting. Proficient in multiple routes of in vivo dosing, including subcutaneous (SC), intraperitoneal (IP), intravenous (IV), and oral (PO) administration, with the ability to efficiently handle and dose a large number of mice (e.g., 40 mice per hour). Experience with rodent blood collection techniques such as tail vein bleeding, cardiac puncture, and other standard methods for plasma/serum collection is essential. Additionally, the candidate should be skilled in basic laboratory tasks, including reagent preparation, plasma and serum processing (centrifugation, pipetting, aliquoting), and necropsy and tissue sampling. The ability to learn additional in vivo techniques, such as surgical procedures, in vivo imaging, mini pump implantation, and post-procedure monitoring, is highly desirable. Strong written and verbal communication skills, teamwork, organizational abilities, and attention to detail are critical for success in this role.

This successful candidate will support discovery research. The technical tasks include performing procedures on laboratory rodents such as handling, dosing via multiple routes, clinical health assessments, biologic sample collection and necropsy. Additional tasks will include training and competency assessment of researchers and assisting with development of new surgical techniques and in vivo research models. The individual will also be responsible for review and compliance with all applicable SOPs, business practices and company policies. Experience: Requirements: The candidate must have an undergraduate degree in life sciences such as biology, biochemistry, pharmacology or similar and 6-10 years of experience in the biopharmaceutical industry and/or an academic laboratory.
