**Associate Scientist II, III, Translational Biology**:
**About Us**:
Alpha-9 Oncology is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing radiopharmaceuticals for solid and hematologic malignancies. Alpha-9 has a portfolio of molecules entering clinical trials and a robust pipeline of additional targets for future development. With a strong cash position, raised from leading healthcare investors, Alpha-9 is poised to dramatically expand its team and accelerate its pipeline.
Radiopharmaceuticals, which enable internal delivery of radiation directly to tumor sites, are emerging as an exciting new class of cancer drugs. The field has evolved dramatically in the last few years, attributable to scientific advances and recent product launches. Radiopharmaceuticals are unique in that the same molecule can be used for imaging or therapeutic purposes, allowing doctors to visualize the molecule in patients prior to administration of therapy. The drug development cycle is also much shorter and capital efficient than traditional modalities.
**Position Summary**:
**Some specific duties and tasks include, but are not limited to, the following**:
- Provide consistent, high quality, compassionate care for laboratory animals
- Perform animal monitoring and health, behavior, and welfare surveillance, along with continuous awareness of current species-specific welfare issues in accordance with Canadian Council of Animal Care guidelines. This includes animal handling, inventories and record keeping, and communications if any abnormalities are observed.
- Perform animal handling, restraints, injections, surgery, post-operative care, blood sampling and tissue collection.
- Contribute to experimental data generation, recording and analysis.
- Participate in lab maintenance, order, and receipt of needed supplies.
- Maintain clear and accurate lab records (e.g., monitoring sheets, health reports, data spreadsheets, electronic notebook)
- Execute other tasks and provide research support as directed by the Supervisor.
- Attend and participate in weekly meetings.
**Qualifications**:
- Master’s degree or Bachelor’s degree with 2-4 years of experience in relevant discipline including experience with laboratory animals
- 2-4 years of related industrial experience, or an equivalent combination of education and experience
- Experience with rodent handling and in vivo experiments, with tumor models being preferred
- Experience with lab maintenance and lab records
- Ability to work safely in a laboratory environment.
- Knowledge in laboratory animal standards and CCAC guidelines
- Experience with radiopharmaceuticals preferred, but not required.
- Observational, organizational, data management and documentation skills
