Scientist/Sr Scientist - Discovery

The Principal Scientist, Discovery will facilitate the advancement of new ligands and technologies for Eli Lilly’s discovery oncology programs. This position will require development, optimization, and standardization of methods to characterize new ligands being investigated as potential radiopharmaceuticals. The ideal candidate will have technical experience with in vitro and cell-based assays, mammalian cell culture, fixed/live cell microscopy methods, and immunofluorescence. The Principal Scientist will work cross‑functionally with members of the discovery and preclinical team to execute research activities on site and with external partners.

Roles And Responsibilities

• Independently perform biochemical and/or cell-based assays to characterize the activity of early‑stage ligands, such as fluorogenic reporter assays and co‑localization experiments via microscopy and immunofluorescence.
• Develop and optimize 2D and 3D cell lines as functional models f...
