NUCLEOME THERAPEUTICS, a fast-emerging biopharma that is decoding the dark matter of the human genome for precision medicine. The dark genome holds more than 90% of disease-linked genetic variants whose value remains untapped, representing a significant opportunity for drug discovery and development. We have the unique ability to link these variants to gene function and map disease pathways. Our cell type-specific platform creates high resolution 3D genome structure maps and enables variant functional validation at scale in primary cell types. This enables us to discover and develop novel, better and safer drugs.
Nucleome Therapeutics was founded by leading experts in gene regulation from the University of Oxford and backed by investment from Oxford Sciences Enterprises.
At Nucleome Therapeutics, we are building a passionate, creative and dedicated multi-disciplinary team of scientists on a mission to decode the dark genome to bring precision medicine to patients. We are building a rewarding and fun environment where people embrace creative ways of thinking, take smart risks, and feel empowered to make a difference. If you want to be an integral part of our team on this journey.
We are seeking a Senior Scientist with expertise in Genomics who is a self-starter, proactive and would like to work in a dynamic environment of a start-up. The successful candidate will investigate the regulation of the non-coding genome in lymphocyte subsets (initially) using state of the art genomics approaches whilst also developing new ones. You will collaborate closely with other experimental and data scientists to guide drug target discovery efforts through interpretation of the Dark Genome’s genetics. As an independent thinker you will plan and implement experiments, interpret the data, and distil complexity into concise communication, while providing scientific coaching and mentorship for less experienced team members. You will have an integral role in the venture, take ownership of the work and demonstrate an exceptional work ethic towards discovering breakthrough medicines that will improve patients’ lives.
At Nucleome Therapeutics equality, diversity and inclusion is really important to us. We welcome applications from all candidates irrespective of age, disability, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, religion or belief, or marital or civil partnership status.
