Careers

Our pipeline harnesses the power of embryonic stem cells to model human development in vitro and combine accurate genetic models of human diseases introduced by gene editing together with multi-cellular self-organization to create defined pathological embryonic tissues that serve as a basis for drug screening analyzed though modern AI tools. While we are pursuing an ongoing drug development effort on Huntington’s Disease, we are also expanding the company focus towards neurodevelopment disorders. We believe that focusing on human embryology in both normal and disease contexts will open new doors towards treatments for many genetic disorders that still have no cures.

We are seeking highly-motivated team members at the level of both Research Assistants and senior Scientists to join our growing team. The successful candidates will contribute to the drug discovery effort as well as the development of novel therapeutics across several areas based on a strong interdisciplinary background, as our interests range from genome editing, physical methods for tissue confinement, to machine learning approach for the analysis of high content phenotypic screens.The ideal candidates are self-motivated with a dynamic personality. You will be working closely with the company CSO and Head of the Biology to expand our portfolio of diseases and develop new screening platforms for drug discovery and run our proprietary assays.

The ideal candidates have extensive experience in the biological sciences, which mostly includes tissue culture, molecular biology and microscopy. The applicant is able to quickly adapt to the challenge of working with cutting-edge biotechnology, to rapidly master independence. The company is based at the Alexandria Launchlabs close to the NYU hospital which offers exceptional resources as well as being the heart of the biotech community in NYC.
