LILA has created the world's first Operating System for Science powered by Scientific Superintelligence™. Backed by General Catalyst.
About the role
Lila is seeking a co-op to help build the automated non-viral delivery platform. The role focuses on improving an automated system for production and characterization of targeted lipid nanoparticles (tLNP). Day-to-day work involves producing tLNPs to support ongoing experiments, developing new conjugation and purification methods for tLNPs, and applying those methods on the automated system. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Pursuing a BSc or MSc in chemical engineering, biomedical engineering, pharmaceutical sciences, biology, or a related field
- Hands-on wet-lab experience and comfort following detailed SOPs
- Data analysis skills, with the ability to interpret results and iterate on experimental design
- Clear written and verbal communication, including ELN documentation
- Available for the full January co-op term, onsite at Alewife
