Who We Are At Neurocrine Biosciences, we pride ourselves on having a strong, inclusive, and positive culture based on our shared purpose and values. We know what it takes to be great, and we are as passionate about our people as we are about our purpose - to relieve suffering for people with great needs. What We Do Neurocrine Biosciences is a leading neuroscience-focused, biopharmaceutical company with a simple purpose: to relieve suffering for people with great needs. We are dedicated to discovering and developing life-changing treatments for patients with under-addressed neurological, neuroendocrine and neuropsychiatric disorders. The company's diverse portfolio includes FDA-approved treatments for tardive dyskinesia, chorea associated with Huntington's disease, classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, endometriosis and uterine fibroids, as well as a robust pipeline including multiple compounds in mid- to late-phase clinical development across our core therapeutic areas. About The Role Assists with setting up and execution of experiments and support the validation of AAV gene therapies. May set up biochemical & cell-based assays to support production, identification, optimization, and characterization of AAV gene therapies. May analyze and present data to lead scientists in an organized and timely manner. Work within and support biology needs of discovery teams. Performs research and/or development in collaboration with others for projects. Makes detailed observations, analyzes data and interprets results with some supervision. Your Contributions
Performs experiments with some supervision in support of scientific activities and project goals involving cell and biochemical assays Follows new methods and techniques and seeks out senior personnel for training and to discuss clarifications and explanations of methods and results Generates complex bioinformatic data sets following SOPs, and assists in data analysis Assists in maintenance of cell culture facilities, including growing cell cultures, cell banking and cleaning and stocking of equipment and rooms.
