The Institute of Molecular and Clinical Ophthalmology Basel (IOB) is seeking an experi-enced and highly motivated Research Associate to join the Mitochondrial Biology and Ther-apy Group led by Dr. Temurkhan Ayupov.
IOB combines basic and clinical research to advance the understanding of vision and its diseases and to develop new therapies for vision loss. We offer an environment where your expertise will be valued, your abilities challenged, and your scientific knowledge expanded.
The Mitochondrial Biology and Therapy Group investigates how mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to neurodegeneration and develops therapeutic strategies for these diseases. A major focus is the development of cell-type-targeted mitochondrial transfer therapies. To accelerate this work, we are establishing genome-wide CRISPR screening as a discovery platform to identify genes and pathways that govern donor mitochondria internalization and integration. In this role you will design, execute, and analyze pooled CRISPR knockout, activation, and interference screens to uncover novel therapeutic targets and contribute to the group's translational programs.

Your position

Design and execute genome-wide CRISPR knockout, CRISPRa, and CRISPRi screens in mammalian cell models
Validate screening hits using arrayed CRISPR experiments and orthogonal func-tional assays in relevant disease models
Establish, optimize, and routinely perform cell-line generation workflows using mito-chondrial transfer in immortalized and primary cells
Generate and analyze NGS and RNA-seq data from primary tissues and cultured cells
Develop and optimize cell-type-targeted mitochondrial transfer approaches in rele-vant in vitro and ex vivo models
Independently design, perform, document, and interpret experiments in a rigorous and reproducible manner
Work closely with technical staff and help supervise research assistants while re-maining experimentally active
Contribute experimentally to translational documentation, regulatory preparation, and clinical protocol development
Present experimental results internally, to collaborators, and at international confer-ences
Mentor junior lab members through direct experimental guidance and training

Your profile

PhD in biology, cell biology, molecular medicine, or a related field
Strong hands-on experience with CRISPR-based screening and NGS analysis
Solid background in cell culture, molecular biology, and in vitro functional assays
Experience with recombinant protein production
Experience with RNA sequencing is desirable
Demonstrated ability to work independently and manage large-scale, multi-step ex-periments
Experience working under BSL-2 conditions
Excellent organizational skills and strong attention to experimental detail
Clear scientific communication skills and a collaborative working style

We offer you

Scientific Excellence & Impact – Join a highly motivated research institute at the forefront of vision research, supported by state-of-the-art facilities in an international, cutting-edge research environment in Basel
An Environment Built for Performance – We create conditions that enable you to do your best work: A commitment to supporting long-term excellence and family-friendly policies
Practical Support & Accessibility – Convenient Basel location with excellent public transport, subsidized meals, childcare support, and access to university sports facili-ties (Unisport)
A Culture of Mutual Trust – We seek colleagues who bring motivation, innovation, and dedication; in return, we provide the resources, flexibility, and environment where exceptional work thrives
