Develop and optimise lateral flow assays for molecular and antigenbased diagnostics for varying target organisms
Investigate novel methods for reagent deposition/drying into matrices for lateral flow/laminatebased diagnostic devices
Complete documentation and records to fulfil QMS requirements

Preferred experience

Experience in development and manufacture of lateral flowbased diagnostics (molecular or antigenbased)
Experience in performing in vitro assays
QMS experience e.g. ISO13485 or similar
