Job description
Job DescriptionJob DescriptionMolecular (Testing) Laboratory Associate
Position type: Full time
Required education: Bachelor’s Degree in the Biological Sciences or similar
Areas of expertise desired:
Molecular Biology background and associated wet lab methods; concept knowledge of biochemical / molecular testing in a regulated environment.
Description
Arbor Vita Corporation is seeking a talented Molecular (Testing) Laboratory Associate who will be joining efforts primarily in the testing of clinical samples for respiratory viruses; methods applied are (examples) quantitative RT-PCR, and ELISA. Experience with the NAAT technologies is desired but not required. In addition, opportunities in medical diagnostic development and manufacturing may be available in the areas of cancer, women’s health and respiratory diseases. Daily activities include diagnostic testing in a wet-lab setting as well as maintenance of lab equipment. Tasks also include the daily use and maintenance of a Laboratory Information System (LIS), analysis and presentation of approaches and data, and at times collaboration with the adjacent areas of product development and manufacturing of medical diagnostics.
Requirements
The position requires working knowledge and wet lab experience in general molecular biology laboratory methods and concepts. The qualified applicant will be able to learn and to apply new techniques, and to critically analyze and present data to the team. The position requires a high degree of detail orientation and enthusiasm for medical diagnostic sample testing as well as an interest in getting familiarized with the requirements given by a regulated environment (CLIA lab and GMP, ISO 13485). The ideal candidate will be self-motivated and will enjoy working and sharing in a team setting.
Company DescriptionArbor Vita Corporation is devoted to protecting the health of women of all ages, races, and geographic locations. Current screening methods, such as the Pap smear and HPV DNA tests, detect cervical cell changes or the presence of (often harmless) HPV, but require a sophisticated processing protocol, limiting their efficacy and applicability—especially in rural areas. By contrast, the OncoE6TM Cervical Test can be used in both advanced settings and ones with limited infrastructure. It requires no refrigeration, is easy to administer (even via self-collection), and yields results in just over two hours. What’s more, our test can capture the same urgent, accurate results for women under 21 and over 60 who have been marginalized by conventional testing.
