CMC Analytical Co-op

<div class="content-intro"><p>At Keros, our mission is to deliver significant clinical benefit to a wide range of patients with disorders that are linked to dysfunctional signaling of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-ß) family of proteins. With a focus on developing differentiated product candidates that are designed to alter TGF-β signaling, we aim to target the pathways critical for the growth, repair and maintenance of blood cells and a number of tissues, including bone, skeletal muscle, adipose and heart tissue. We believe our product candidates have the potential to unlock the full therapeutic benefits of modulating the TGF-β superfamily and provide disease-modifying benefit to patients.</p></div><p><strong>Job Summary: </strong></p> <p>As a Co-op student in Analytical Development, you will participate in assay development activities to support the development of analytical methods and characterization of Fc-fusion molecules.</p> <p><strong>Primary Responsibilities:</strong><strong><br></strong></p> <ul> <li>Perform development, optimization and testing for ELISA, cell-based assays and various separation methods (chromatographic and electrophoretic)</li> <li>Help with routine activities such as cell culture for potency assay development</li> <li>Perform recombinant protein analytical testing in the lab, data analysis and document results in electronic laboratory notebook</li> <li>Summarize and present the progress of your work</li> <li>Participate in laboratory organization activities such as ordering and receipt of reagents and samples</li> </ul> <p><strong>Qualifications:</strong><strong><br></strong></p> <ul> <li>In a Bachelor’s degree program or higher in biology, biochemistry, biotechnology or related field at an accredited college or university</li> <li>Preference to those who have completed a prior internship or co-op experience in a similar laboratory position</li> <li>Must be able to work 40 hrs/week, Monday-Friday, for the full duration of the co-op</li> </ul><div class="content-pay-transparency"><div class="pay-input"><div class="description"><p>This pay range represents the base hourly rate or base annual full-time salary for all positions in the job grade within which this position falls.
