We are seeking a highly motivated Associate Research Scientist with a strong background in radiation biology who will be responsible for the analytical testing of the FAST-DOSE bioassay system, across 1) an array of biological variables (age and sex, immune status, and specific health conditions) that could potentially confound dose estimations in human and NHP blood ex vivo and 2) longitudinal protein measurements in the peripheral blood of WAG/RijCmcr rats exposed to TBI or PBI doses. Using the datasets generated from these studies, qualified candidates will also work closely with our team biostatistician towards multiparametric modeling of the biomarker signals to assess the dose predictive accuracy of FAST-DOSE bioassay. In addition, there will be the opportunity to design and conduct a broad range of studies aimed at testing the validation and verification of the biodosimetry assay system. There will also be opportunities to perform further validation and verification studies of the biodosimetry assay system as required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
