Responsibilities
- Collaborate within a team to execute biocatalytic processes under expert guidance while independently managing a dedicated research project.
- Carry out enzymatic transformations, purify resulting compounds, and refine reaction conditions to enable scalable process development.
- Design and implement assays to measure enzyme performance, conduct high-throughput preparation of enzyme microplates, and immobilize enzymes on solid supports.
- Conduct chiral purity assessments using UPLC and GC methods, and analyze compound structures via NMR and mass spectrometry.
- Interpret experimental results and maintain accurate, detailed records in electronic lab notebooks and documentation systems.
- Prepare technical protocols, scientific reports, and presentation materials based on experimental outcomes.
- Perform regular upkeep and basic servicing of laboratory instruments and equipment.
- Undertake additional lab-related tasks as needed to support project goals.
Responsibilities
- Work in a collaborative environment, implement biocatalysis under the guidance of a SME, and take full responsibility for a research project.
- Run enzymatic reactions, isolate pure products, and optimize the reactions to develop scalable processes.
- Develop assays to evaluate enzyme activity, use high throughput experimentation to prepare enzyme plates, and immobilize enzymes on resins
- Perform chiral analysis using UPLC and GC, and characterize the products using NMR and MS.
- Analyze experimental data and properly document experiments (electronic lab notebook and records).
