[RA2206] Research Associate I – III (Oligonucleotide Chemist/Biochemist)

BS/MS level Oligonucleotide Chemist / Biochemist sought to drive product development and services for a rapidly growing biotechnology company.

Founded in 2012, EpiCypher® was created in response to the growing demand for high-quality reagents and services to study chromatin regulation and enable epigenetics-focused drug development. Our designer nucleosomes (dNucs) with fully defined histone post-translational modifications or DNA modifications power the dCypher® Discovery Platform for dissecting epigenetic regulators in their physiological context, and the SNAP™ portfolio of Spike-in Controls for quantitative genome-scale studies. EpiCypher is at the cutting edge of chromatin mapping with the recent launch of the CUTANA™ platform for ultra-sensitive CUT&RUN and CUT&Tag assays. These provide major advantages over ChIP-seq, delivering high quality epigenomic data at a cost and ease-of-use accessible to a broad range of researchers.
