Job Description
We are looking for a motivated third-year or fourth-year of BSc or MSc student in life sciences, bio-chemistry, biotechnology preferably with at least 1 prior internship!
Do you want to know what it’s like to be part of one of the largest multinational companies in the pharmaceutical industry? We offer an internship opportunity within our Discovery and Technology (D&T) department where you will have the freedom and space for your own initiative.

REQUIRED SKILLS:

Analytical Problem Solving, Analytical Problem Solving, Animal Handling, Assay Development, Biolayer Interferometry, Biotechnology, Cell-Based Assays, Clinical Research, Communication, Data Analytics, Database Management, Data Entry, Data Visualization, Document Management, Global Supply Chain, Health Economics, Immunoassays, In Vitro Assays, Management Process, Medical Virology, Molecular Biology, Office Applications, Personal Development, Process Improvements, Project Management {+ 5 more}

• Investigate published data and protocols relevant to Octet BLI to guide the development of robust experimental workflows.
• Immobilize ligands such as antibodies, proteins, DNA/RNA, and antigens on biosensors and conduct -BLI experiments to study binding kinetics, stability, and specificity.
• Evaluate parameters influencing assay performance, including buffer composition (for ELISA and AlphaLISA), adjuvant effects, and antigen source variation (e.g., expression systems like APx vs. baculovirus-derived).
• Develop and refine multi-step (sequential) assay formats aimed at improving sensitivity and specificity. Analyze how antibody conjugation affects binding affinity and kinetics.
• Share your insights and propose new approaches to enhance assay design and platform utility within the research team. Your perspective as an intern is valued and encouraged.
  The above-mentioned responsibilities are an indication of what you will be doing after proper onboarding and initial learning and development. This provides you with the opportunity to learn and hereafter perform tasks independently. In consultation with your supervisor, you could take on additional tasks and responsibilities.
