Are you excited about Precision Medicine? Would you like have an impact on patients' lives and contribute to eliminate cancer as a cause of death? If so then join us!

We're investing like never before in our people, in growth, and in new diagnostic techniques and technologies. There are opportunities at every turn, with a variety and breadth that is uncommon to find and an industry-leading pipeline in oncology. Scientists at AstraZeneca are working every day to turn science fiction into science fact. Our ambition - to develop innovative, targeted medicines for every patient that needs them - and to match those treatments to patients most likely to benefit from them - is now a reality. This approach, known as Precision Medicine, is based on those individual characteristics that make some patients respond to treatment better than others. We use this knowledge to develop diagnostic tests that doctors can use to help prescribe the best treatment for each patient. Indeed, it's now become common practice for patients with cancer to be offered such diagnostic tests before their treatment plan is agreed.

The AstraZeneca Companion Diagnostics Unit within the Precision Medicine and Biosamples function drives scientific leadership through the delivery of innovative companion diagnostics enabling our oncology ambition to transform the lives of patients living with cancer, and ultimately eliminate cancer as a cause of death.

We do this by:

*

Leading the development of diagnostics across AstraZeneca's early and late stage oncology portfolios through close collaborations with our external diagnostic partners.
*

Leading the development and implementation of patient selection strategies to deliver companion diagnostics programs in support of our business priorities.
*

Leading companion diagnostic regulatory interactions to secure companion diagnostic approvals in major markets
*

*

Developing strategies for early cancer detection, near patient testing and implementing testing options for minimal residual disease and early treatment interventions.
*

Utilising artificial intelligence diagnostic solutions and seeing software as a medical device.
*

Developing specific disease area strategies (e.g. lung cancer, breast cancer or hematological malignancies) and new diagnostic modalities.
*

Collaborating closely with fellow pharma companies on joint assets.

Join this fantastic, collaborative team and be part of our success; we have already delivered over 50 innovative/impactful companion/complementary oncology diagnostic approvals across the major markets of the US, EU, Japan and China since 2014 and we need you to help us take the next steps in patient-centric diagnostic development.

What you'll do
As an Associate Director you'll be a member of the Oncology Companion Diagnostic Unit (CDU). Your objective will be to ensure that innovative companion diagnostic tests are delivered to our oncology drug projects. This will entail developing and implementing the diagnostic strategy agreed by the respective development teams, and planning and leading Precision Medicine activities from a technical, financial, risk, regulatory, IP and partnering perspective. You will work collaboratively with colleagues at all levels in the Precision Medicine function to deliver this expertise to drug project teams. Your role will also involve contributing to the personal development of project team members. Providing expert advice on strategic and innovative Precision Medicine approaches and companion diagnostic developments to development teams, you'll be instrumental in ensuring that we adopt world-class practice in the field.

We're investing like never before in our people, in growth, and in new diagnostic techniques and technologies. There are opportunities at every turn, with a variety and breadth that is uncommon to find and an industry-leading pipeline in oncology. Scientists at AstraZeneca are working every day to turn science fiction into science fact. Our ambition - to develop innovative, targeted medicines for every patient that needs them - and to match those treatments to patients most likely to benefit from them - is now a reality. This approach, known as Precision Medicine, is based on those individual characteristics that make some patients respond to treatment better than others. We use this knowledge to develop diagnostic tests that doctors can use to help prescribe the best treatment for each patient. Indeed, it's now become common practice for patients with cancer to be offered such diagnostic tests before their treatment plan is agreed.

The AstraZeneca Companion Diagnostics Unit within the Precision Medicine and Biosamples function drives scientific leadership through the delivery of innovative companion diagnostics enabling our oncology ambition to transform the lives of patients living with cancer, and ultimately eliminate cancer as a cause of death.

We do this by:

* Leading the development of diagnostics across AstraZeneca's early and late stage oncology portfolios through close collaborations with our external diagnostic partners

* Developing specific disease area strategies (e.g. lung cancer, breast cancer or hematological malignancies) and new diagnostic modalities
* Collaborating closely with fellow pharma companies on joint assets

What you'll do
As a Senior Director you'll be a member of the Oncology Companion Diagnostic Unit (CDU). Working collaboratively your objective will be to ensure that innovative diagnostic tests or equivalent segmentation tools are delivered to drug products within your therapeutic area of expertise.

As a director you will achieve this by leading a Global Product Diagnostic sub team made up of functional experts and be empowered to deliver all scientific, technical, clinical, financial, regulatory, intellectual property, commercial and partnering aspects needed to implement the diagnostic strategy. You will be accountable for ensuring that the roles and responsibilities of the team are delivered demonstrating behaviours and values aligned to AstraZeneca Code of Conduct and supporting policies, standards and procedures; including accountability for compliant management of Budget, Safety, Health and Environment.

You will be accountable for delivery to several Global Product teams and to act as the single point of contact for all Precision Medicine activities to those product team(s). Being accountable to the Leaders of the relevant product teams you will ensure that the associated diagnostic development reflects world-class practice in the field and contributes to an increased probability of successful drug launch, reimbursement and return on investment.

Your role will also involve contributing to the personal development of project team members. Providing expert advice on strategic and innovative Precision Medicine approaches and companion diagnostic developments to development teams, you'll be instrumental in ensuring that we adopt world-class practice in the field.

Essential for the role

*

PhD or equivalent experience in a relevant subject
*

Experience in diagnostic tests or segmentation tools in clinical development, within a diagnostic or pharmaceutical setting
*

Significant experience of Precision Medicine approaches and diagnostic development within the relevant therapeutic area
*

Evidence of excellent skills in communication, stakeholder influencing, programme management, and regulatory interactions

A Good Choice started in 2015 on the island Hönö outside Gothenburg. The idea for the company started when our founder found it impossible to source plastic that allowed for manufacturing sustainable light fixtures. Being an entrepreneur, he saw both a worthy challenge and an opportunity. Bringing experts in polymer technology onboard led to our idea to turn renewable PLA (Polylactic acid) into flexible and adaptable formulas fit for a multitude of purposes.

Tänk dig om all plast var ofarlig. Tänk om du kunde kompostera din tröja, barnens leksaker, dina grönsaksförpackningar, din ….bil? Tänk om ditt lag kunde spela på en plastfotbollsplan utan att farliga microplaster spreds.
Tänk om du kunde säga till dina barn att du var med och skapade förutsättningarna för en bättre värld? Starkt eller hur. Let´s make a good choice together. Let´s change plastic. For good.

Vad du gör
Vi söker nu en polymer kemist som vill driva utvecklingsprojekt och vara den viktiga länken mellan externa och interna intressenter. Du är inte bara en duktig kemist och nerdigt intresserad av bioplast, du är även en person som vill berätta för andra hur det verkligen fungerar. Internt samverkar du med marknad, produktion och utvecklingsteam. Du deltar i samtliga moment under produktutvecklingen vilket gör arbetet väldigt praktisk, till exempel provkörningar, analyser och kvalitetsuppföljning på egen hand. Du kommer att vara med vid mässor och event, vara tekniskt stöd i försäljningen och driva patentärenden.

Vem du är
• Polymertekniks högskoleutbildning, erfarenhet eller nyligen utexaminerad och vilja arbeta med produktutveckling och projektledning.
• God kännedom om olika biomaterial
• Tjänsten är självständig vilket kräver att du har en god planeringsförmåga, är drivande och metodisk samt har god problemlösningsförmåga. Det krävs att du gillar kombinationen av teoretiskt och praktiskt arbete.
• Du är öppen och bra på att lyssna, såväl inåt organisationen som utåt. Du är prestigelös i din kontakt med omgivningen samt ser helheten och får arbetet att komma vidare. Vi ser en person framför oss som är kreativ, nyfiken och uthållig. Vidare har du god teknisk förståelse gällande produkt, material och process.
• Du behöver ha mycket goda kunskaper i svenska och engelska, tal som skrift.

A Good Choice erbjuder
Framför allt gemenskapen och entreprenörsandan i ett litet växande företag som brinner för hållbarhet och vår gemensamma framtid. Vi finns på vackra Hönö i Öckerö kommun, ett stenkast från färjan och nära pendling till Göteborg.
Rollen är bred och du får möjlighet att utveckla den och växa med företaget. Din åsikt är viktig och du får vara med och skapa något revolutionerande för många stora företag.

Are you excited about Precision Medicine? Would you like have an impact on patients' lives and contribute to eliminate cancer as a cause of death? If so then join us!

We're investing like never before in our people, in growth, and in new diagnostic techniques and technologies. There are opportunities at every turn, with a variety and breadth that is uncommon to find and an industry-leading pipeline in oncology. Scientists at AstraZeneca are working every day to turn science fiction into science fact. Our ambition - to develop innovative, targeted medicines for every patient that needs them - and to match those treatments to patients most likely to benefit from them - is now a reality. This approach, known as Precision Medicine, is based on those individual characteristics that make some patients respond to treatment better than others. We use this knowledge to develop diagnostic tests that doctors can use to help prescribe the best treatment for each patient. Indeed, it's now become common practice for patients with cancer to be offered such diagnostic tests before their treatment plan is agreed.

The AstraZeneca Companion Diagnostics Unit within the Precision Medicine and Biosamples function drives scientific leadership through the delivery of innovative companion diagnostics enabling our oncology ambition to transform the lives of patients living with cancer, and ultimately eliminate cancer as a cause of death.

We do this by:

*

Leading the development of diagnostics across AstraZeneca's early and late stage oncology portfolios through close collaborations with our external diagnostic partners.
*

Leading the development and implementation of patient selection strategies to deliver companion diagnostics programs in support of our business priorities.
*

Leading companion diagnostic regulatory interactions to secure companion diagnostic approvals in major markets
*

Collaborate across AstraZeneca with colleagues in multiple Clinical functions plus commercial to help drive market uptake.
*

Developing strategies for early cancer detection, near patient testing and implementing testing options for minimal residual disease and early treatment interventions.
*

Utilising artificial intelligence diagnostic solutions and seeing software as a medical device.
*

Developing specific disease area strategies (e.g. lung cancer, breast cancer or hematological malignancies) and new diagnostic modalities.
*

Collaborating closely with fellow pharma companies on joint assets.

Join this fantastic, collaborative team and be part of our success; we have already delivered over 50 innovative/impactful companion/complementary oncology diagnostic approvals across the major markets of the US, EU, Japan and China since 2014 and we need you to help us take the next steps in patient-centric diagnostic development.

If this sounds like the type of organisation where you would like to grow your career and make a real difference to patients then we would like to hear from you.

Stark forskning och attraktiva utbildningar lockar forskare och studenter från hela världen. Med ny kunskap och nya perspektiv bidrar Göteborgs universitet till en bättre framtid.

Björn Burmanns gruppering användar toppmodern NMR-spektroskopi, i kombination med andra strukturbiologiska metoder samt biofysikalisk karaktärisering, för att studera stora molekylkomplex i syfte att förstå grundläggande cellulära funktioner på atomnivå. Björn Burmanns grupp undersöker makromolekylära proteinmaskiner som ligger bakom väsentliga cellulära funktioner, t.ex. proteinkvalitetskontroll och deras effekt på felvecknings- och aggregeringsbenägna proteiner som ligger bakom flera olika sjukdomar, genom biofysiska och strukturella biologiska tillvägagångssätt, t.ex. Kärnmagnetisk resonans med hög upplösning (NMR). 

Arbetsuppgifter
Den bakteriella periplasman innehåller ett specialiserat protein-nätverk av chaperoner, som reglerar transport av uppkommande membranproteiner till det yttre membranet och säkerställer nedbrytning av felveckade proteiner för att förhindra deras ansamling. Strukturell kunskap om dessa proteiner har exklusivt erhållits från renade proteiner, isolerade från deras naturliga miljö. Proteiner och deras funktionella tillstånd påverkas dock direkt av den omgivande miljön. Syftet med ditt projekt kommer att vara att karakterisera det periplasmatiska proteinkvalitetskontrollmaskiner för första gången in situ, baserat på högupplösta NMR-spektroskopimetoder med fokus på nyligen införda in situ-tekniker som etablerats för studier av integrerade membranproteiner också som lösliga proteiner som finns i bakteriernas cellhölje.

För att uppnå detta mål kommer du att använda en mängd tekniker som sträcker sig från grundläggande molekylärbiologi till avancerade strukturbiologiska metoder (inte begränsade till enbart NMR-spektroskopi, eftersom det är planerat att också tillämpa röntgenkristallografi eller cryo-elektronmikroskopi närhelst det indikeras av våra data) och biofysisk karakterisering. Metoder inom mikrobiologi, molekylärbiologi, bioinformatik och biokemi kommer också att användas. Vi letar efter en kollega som är mycket motiverad, vetenskapligt oberoende och kreativ och kan bidra till ett team. 

Behörighet
Grundläggande behörighet:
1. avlagt examen på avancerad nivå, eller 2. fullgjort kursfordringar om minst 240 högskolepoäng, varav minst 60 högskolepoäng på avancerad nivå, eller
3. på annat sätt inom eller utom landet förvärvat motsvarande kunskaper.

Särskild behörighet:
1. avlagt examen på avancerad nivå i relevant naturvetenskapligt ämne, eller 2. fullgjort kursfordringar om minst 60 högskolepoäng på avancerad nivå i relevanta* naturvetenskapliga ämnen, eller 3. på något annat sätt inom eller utom landet förvärvat i huvudsak motsvarande kunskaper relevanta för den planerade utbildningen.

Bedömningsgrund
Vi letar efter begåvade och engagerade studenter som är ivriga att bedriva karriärer inom dynamisk strukturbiologi. Du har ett öppet sinne, är angelägen om att lära dig och har ett genuint intresse för vetenskap. Doktorander kommer att delta i ett brett spektrum av vetenskapliga uppgifter och frågor relaterade till projektet, vilket kräver ett djupt intresse för och grundläggande kunskaper om biofysik och strukturbiologi. Erfarenhet, från utbildning eller motsvarande, i molekylär kloning, rekombinant proteinexpression och proteinrening, isotopmärkning för NMR-studier och NMR-spektroskopi anses vara en fördel. En utbildningsbakgrund med fokus på struktur och dynamik, molekylärbiologi, biofysik, kemisk biologi eller biokemi är fördelaktig. Erfarenhet i biofysisk dataanalys och matematik anses vara ett ytterligare plus. Du förväntas arbeta både självständigt och i grupper och ha god kommunikationsförmåga på engelska.

Anställning
Anställningsform: Tidsbegränsad anställning, fyra år

Omfattning: 100 %

Göteborgs universitet möter samhällets utmaningar med mångsidig kunskap. 49 000 studenter och 6 400 medarbetare gör universitetet till en stor och inspirerande arbetsplats. Stark forskning och attraktiva utbildningar lockar forskare och studenter från hela världen. Med ny kunskap och nya perspektiv bidrar Göteborgs universitet till en bättre framtid.

Vi söker en postdoktor till vår nya grupp vid institutionen för kemi och molekylärbiologi inom ramen för Wallenbergcentrum för molekylär och translationell medicin vid Göteborgs universitet. Det kan komma att rekryteras upp till två heltidsanställningar på nuvarande utlysning.

Glykaner eller komplexa kolhydrater utgör kapseln av bakterier, svampar, såväl som växtceller, och omger alla typer av biomolekyler som proteiner, lipider eller RNA. Den specifika glykansekvensen som är fysiskt bunden till ett protein, förändrar i grunden dess egenskaper och kapacitet, finjusterade stabilitet, struktur och funktion. Vi visade nyligen att - med hjälp av maskininlärning - kan denna rika information utnyttjas för att förutsäga glykanegenskaper och i sin tur egenskaper hos de organismer som uppvisar dessa glykaner. Detta öppnar potentialen för att glykobiologi kan bidra till ny förståelse och möjliggöra framtida biomedicinska terapier.

I detta projekt kommer vi genom utveckling av toppmodern maskininlärning, bioinformatik samt systembiologi att upprätta en plattform som förutsäger glykansammansättningen i biologiska system, vilket kan till att glykobiologi blir en high-throughput disciplin. Att förstå den invecklade roll som glykaner spelar i biologin kommer att leda till att vi även kan utnyttja glykaners potential för biomedicinska ändamål.

Arbetsuppgifter
Du kommer att utforma, utveckla och tillämpa algoritmer inom toppmodern maskininlärning och/eller bioinformatik för att studera glykobiologi genom systembiologidata. Arbetsuppgifterna inkluderar, men är inte begränsade till, bearbetning och analys av systembiologiska data (t.ex. genomik / transkriptomik), algoritmutveckling och konstruktion samt analys av relevanta modeller. Projektet kommer att kräva omfattande återkoppling med experimentell datainsamling, så en tillräcklig förståelse av nödvändiga tekniker och effektiv kommunikation med de ansvariga kommer att vara avgörande för projektets framgång.

Kvalifikationer
Krav är doktorsexamen inom ett område som är relevant för beräkningsbiologi eller relaterade områden. Färdigheter i minst ett relevant programmeringsspråk (t.ex. Python, R, etc.) krävs för denna position.

En bakgrund inom glykobiologi och/eller erfarenhet av experimentella "wet lab" -uppgifter kommer att ses som fördelar för denna position. Specialkompetens inom maskininlärning/ djupinlärning kommer också att ses som ett plus. Vi värdesätter särskilt öppensinnade, innovativa och uppdragsdrivna forskare som är villiga att lära sig.

Anställning
Anställningen är en tidsbegränsad anställning på två år på heltid (100%) med placering tills vidare vid Institutionen för kemi och molekylärbiologi i Göteborg. Tillträde sker snarast möjligt eller enligt överenskommelse.
