Job Description
We are looking for a committed and proactive Scientist/Senior Scientist to join our Animal Sports Gene Doping Detection group, which is part of the Sport and Specialised Analytical Services (SSAS)department within the Standards division at ourFordham,Cambridgeshiresite.
Job purpose:
LGC'sAnimal Sports business provides medication and doping control services to the animal sports sector, where the major customers include theBHA,IHRB,FEI, andGBGB.Drug screening for these regulatory bodies is carried out to protect the integrity of the sports and the welfare of the animal competitors. The laboratory must respond to the latest threats identified by the regulators and so research, method development and validation underpin all drug screening activities.
As part of an on-going project funded by the British Horseracing Authority, we are establishing a screening portfolio for the detection of prohibited gene therapy (transgene and gene editing) in horses. This project will augment our recently published research into a standardised pipeline, and involve development work in setting up the required screening workflows. We require a Scientist to work on this screening development project as well as undertake broader research on other gene doping projects within the research team.
This position will require relevant experience in DNA extraction, PCR, and real time PCR. Practical experience in next-generation sequencing will also be an advantage. Familiarity with the Linux operating system and bioinformatics software is desirable, but full training will be provided. A range of levels of experience will be considered, so applications are welcomed from both experienced Scientists as well as those at an earlier stage of their career since full training will be given.
