Job Description:

Join our innovative team at Johnson & Johnson to work on optimizing and stabilizing therapeutic antibody solutions.

Therapeutic antibodies are essential in modern medicine for their specificity and efficacy in treating various diseases.

This project seeks to address the challenges of maintaining antibody stability during storage and administration through cutting-edge research and technology.

Key Responsibilities:


* Engage and enhance experimental methods to explore stabilizing solutions for therapeutic antibodies within the J&J portfolio.


* Utilize cutting edge techniques to analyze and compare different protein aggregation mechanisms, aiming to better stabilize therapeutic antibodies against particle formation.


* Shadow scientists performing high-throughput screening (HTS) of solution variations in the lab to assess antibody stabilization.


* Generate and analyze datasets that aid in the prediction of particle formation across stability campaigns.

What You Will Gain:


* Hands-on experience in biological formulation and data analysis techniques.


* Insight into the methodologies for enhancing the stability of therapeutic antibodies.


* Exposure to cutting-edge research in the pharmaceutical industry and experience contributing to Johnson & Johnson's innovative solutions.


* Opportunity to collaborate with industry leaders and gain knowledge applicable to future scientific careers.

Qualifications:


* Currently enrolled in a Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD degree program in Biology, Chemistry, Bioengineering, Biophysics, or a related field.


* Basic knowledge of working in a laboratory setting is preferred but not required.


* Basic knowledge of data analysis techniques required, knowledge of advanced data analysis techniques preferred.
