The Enzyme Replacement Therapy group, part of Regeneron Genetics Medicine, is seeking an independent and motivated Scientist/Sr. Scientist to support the development of cutting-edge gene therapies for treating lysosomal diseases and other neurological disorders.
The ideal candidate will have strong in vivo and molecular biology skills to contribute to new therapies using our technology platforms, including blood-brain barrier crossing, gene therapy, CRISPR-mediated gene editing, VelociGene mouse models, and VelocImmune antibody platforms. We hope you are excited by the opportunity to lead innovative projects and further expand our CNS delivery portfolio.
As a Scientist/Sr. Scientist, a typical day might include the following:
Designing, performing, analyzing, and troubleshooting in vitro and in vivo experiments to validate BBB-crossing enzyme replacement therapies
Performing basic molecular biology techniques (Western blotting, ELISA, enzymatic activity assays, immunofluorescence staining, plasmid cloning)
Conducting in vivo gene therapy studies in mice, including dosing, behavior testing, harvesting, and analyzing tissues
Collaborating with other team members and providing support to their programs
Participating in team meetings and preparing presentations for departmental meetings
This role might be for you if:
You enjoy working in an innovation-driven, highly collaborative environment
You have a passion for developing gene therapies for neurological disorders
You have strong organizational, time-management, and communication skills
You can effectively balance multiple projects independently
To be considered for this role you typically have a Ph.D. with 0-4 years or a BS/MS with a minimum of 4-6 years of proven experience and expertise in cell biology, molecular biology, neuroscience, lysosomal diseases, or related fields. Extensive experience performing Western blot, ELISA, immunofluorescence staining, and mouse treatment studies is required. Experience with AAV gene therapies and antibody therapies is desired. The level will be commensurate with experience. #RGM
