About Modulari-T Biosciences
Cell and gene therapies hold immense promise but current approaches are hindered by serious challenges related to toxic side effects and lack the potency and persistence needed for lasting benefit.
Manufacturing is long, complex and failure-prone, requiring the patient's own immune cells to be harvested, engineered in a lab, and reinfused which makes these therapies expensive, inaccessible, and risky.
Modulari-T Bioscience is redefining how cell therapies are made and delivered. Our approach leverages two complementary technologies developed in-house: Modular Actuation Receptor Complexes (MARC) and Modular Vectors (MoVe).MARCs are synthetic immune receptors designed to deliver durable therapeutic effects with reduced toxicity, directly addressing the limitations of current therapies.
Instead of complex lab-based manufacturing, we use MoVes protein envelopes to deliver MARC genes directly to target immune cells inside the patient.
This in vivo approach simplifies production, lowers costs, and broadens access to transformative treatments.
Modulari-T was founded to harness the power of modular immune receptors and build an evolved and differentiated version of cell and gene therapies.
We are a venture backed preclinical-stage biotechnology company developing the next generation of in vivo cell and gene therapies from the in-depth understanding of the natural modulatory power of native immune receptors.
About The Role
We are seeking a Research Associate or Junior Scientist to complement our team in developing and validating our novel chimeric antigen receptors and gene delivery vehicles within primary human cells and animal models.
In collaboration with the scientific team, the candidate will help execute defined R&D programs related to proof of concept and technological de-risking experiments to demonstrate new applications of our core technology and expand our patents.
The ideal candidate is someone who is an excellent communicator, has a can-do attitude, and is comfortable with adjusting priorities and workloads as needed.
We would love to hear from you if you have wet lab experience in immunology, virology, molecular biology, synthetic biology, gene/protein engineering, biochemistry or a related field.
