Sci­ent­ist – Blood Brain Bar­rier (gn)

By

ISAR Bioscience GmbH is a trans­la­tional research com­pany in Planegg near Munich, sup­por­ted by the Free State of Bavaria.

Our research focuses on degen­er­at­ive dis­eases of the brain (Alzheimer’s), the heart (infarc­tion, car­diac insuf­fi­ciency) and the immune sys­tem. We use induced pluri­po­tent stem cell tech­no­lo­gies (iPSC) to develop dis­ease mod­els for the dis­cov­ery of novel drugs. In doing so, we enter into stra­tegic part­ner­ships with research insti­tu­tions and indus­trial companies.

To expand our “Neuro­de­gen­er­a­tion Pro­gram” team, we are filling the pos­i­tion full-time as of 01.04.2023

Primary respons­ib­il­it­ies

  • Develop a robust and repro­du­cible sys­tem to model the Blood Brain Bar­rier (BBB) using stable cell lines or/and hiPSC-derived cells
  • Estab­lish robust and scal­able assays to mon­itor deliv­ery of bio­lo­gics, such as anti­bod­ies for brain disorder
  • Develop and optim­ize BBB tar­get­ing antibodies
  • Crit­ic­ally ana­lyze and inter­pret data and define real­istic timelines for studies
  • Work closely with and com­mu­nic­ate res­ults to internal teams as well as to external partners
