Über diese Mass Spectrometry Scientist Stelle bei Convergentresearch

Convergentresearch · Vor Ort · Watertown, MA
Parallel Squared Technology Institute (PTI) is a non-profit research institute aiming to  catalyze a leap in protein analysis technology and use it to explore new biological frontiers. PTI supports open research and educational opportunities supporting rapid career development for scientists, engineers, and mathematicians.
 
Why? Protein dysfunctions directly cause many diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease. Yet, proteins remain understudied because of technological hurdles.
 
How? To resolve these limitations, PTI will develop mass tags enabling a new framework for multiplexed protein analysis by mass spectrometry towards achieving 100-fold increase in throughput. Scientists at and collaborating with the institute will use these gains to directly investigate disease mechanisms and resolve problems that have proven intractable for decades. Our proof of principle technology and strategies are outlined at: parallelsq.org.
 
PTI’s new approach requires synergy between a diverse team of chemists, machine learning engineers, biologists, and mass spectrometrists. Alzheimer’s disease and aging will be among the first focuses of this technology-driven research organization.
 
New career opportunities
Members of PTI will be supported with industry-level resources to lead research projects and disseminate their discoveries and innovations to the broader biomedical community through frequent publications, presentations, and submissions to public data portals.
