About our Company
Universal DX, Inc. is an international Company with a highly experienced team focused on cracking cancer’s code. Through our multi-omics and bioinformatics models, we have figured out how to read the disease’s signals in blood with high accuracy to detect cancer in its earliest stages. Starting with a colorectal cancer screening liquid biopsy test, we are building a multi-cancer platform that can identify the unique DNA regions associated with different types of cancers.
The Opportunity
Universal DX is seeking an R&D Research Associate to support the continued development and refinement of Signal-C, our next-generation sequencing (NGS) assay for colorectal cancer screening. You will execute customized study protocols with training and guidance from scientists, help investigate unexpected results, and contribute to improvements in assay chemistry and performance.
This hands-on, onsite role in Dallas Fort Worth calls for a foundation in molecular biology and the ability to learn new methods and carry out study-specific protocols. You will work across plasma cfDNA extraction, library preparation, target capture, and sequencing using manual and automated methods.
