Research Laboratory Technician
- Research & Development
- Denmark - Måløv
Are you interested in working with in vitro biology? If you find it exciting and inspiring to be part of a research team developing new insulin analogues for an improved treatment of diabetes, you may be our new colleague in the Insulin Biology department.
About the department
We are a department specialising in in vitro diabetes research with primary focus on insulin. We work in teams consisting of a scientist and one or more technicians, in close collaboration with the rest of the department. We contribute to many different research projects and are responsible for delivering high quality data and input to drive the projects forward. In the department, we are fourteen scientists, nineteen technicians, and several Post Docs and PhD students committed to the discovery of new and improved insulin analogues as well as new pharmaceutical peptides and proteins of therapeutic interest within diabetes care. We are located in modern facilities in Måløv as part of the Diabetes Research Unit.
The job
As a laboratory technician, you will participate in the in vitro characterisation and development of new protein based therapeutics for diabetes care. You will be employing a variety of analytical techniques such as ELISA, Western blotting, enzyme coupled assays, quantification of radioisotopes, cellular imaging, purification of DNA/RNA, and PCR by working with primary cell types and cultured cell lines. In collaboration with a scientist, you will participate in the planning and preparation of experiments as well as the development and establishment of new in vitro assays. You will also carry out the experiments in the laboratory and take active part in data handling and analysis. The working atmosphere is characterised by an open, cheerful and informal tone. Ultimately, your work will contribute to the improvement of the quality of life for millions of people with diabetes around the world.
Qualifications
You have an education as laboratory technician or similar and you have at least three years’ experience within research. Experience with biochemical, molecular and cell biological methods is considered an advantage. Since data handling and evaluation is part of your job, it is important that you have solid experience with Windows based programs. You have an independent approach to your work assignments, work in a systematic and focussed fashion and take responsibility for your work. In addition to your scientific profile you are an open minded person with a flexible and helpful attitude and good collaboration skills. We value sound humour as well as a healthy working environment.
At Novo Nordisk, we strive for excellence. Your skills, dedication and ambition will help us change lives for the better. In exchange, we offer you an opportunity to work in an extraordinary stimulating scientific environment and benefit from a range of possibilities for professional and personal development.
Your application may in English or Danish.
