Cellply is a life science tools company based in Bologna, Italy. We have developed and are launching a next generation analysis platform to transform cell therapy discovery, development and quality control using novel single cell approaches to carry out multi-parametric assays in parallel from the same sets of cells. We are creating the new standard for fast, automated, and multiplexed assays that puts more critical data in the hands of cell therapy researchers in basic science, pharma, release testing and beyond. Our first product is currently with customers in early access, and we are growing quickly and looking for an exceptional new team member to join our R&D and generate new assays and applications.RESPONSIBILITIES AND DUTIESThe Senior Scientist will conceive, plan, design, and conduct advanced studies to support research and development.
