Senior Director Translational Biology

<section style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
 <h2 style="color: #34495e; font-size: 1.2em; margin: 20px 0 10px 0;">About Us</h2>
 <p style="line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px;">The Lundquist Institute for Biomedical Innovation at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center is an independent, non-profit biomedical research organization located in Torrance, California. In dozens of laboratories throughout the campus, researchers are working to unravel the mysteries of heart and kidney disease, cardiac complications in newborns, chronic lung disease, skin cancer, sickle cell disease, disorders of the autoimmune system, and much more. Many of these projects are collaborative in nature, involving experts from different areas of specialization. Our discoveries have prevented blindness in newborns, enabled premature infants with fragile lungs to breathe and allowed children with rare, often fatal diseases to grow up healthy and strong.</p>

 <h2 style="color: #34495e; font-size: 1.2em; margin: 20px 0 10px 0;">Description:</h2>
 <p style="line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px;">Our effort is focused on studying artificial two level quantum systems based on mesoscopic superconducting devices dubbed Single Cooper Pair Boxes. The main objective of the work is to develop quantum bits for quantum computation as required by our funding agency. The same devices can be used for exquisite photo-detection with spectral resolution from sub millimeter wavelengths to X-Rays. We are currently developing a dispersive readout based on the quantum capacitance of the Single Cooper Pair Boxes. This involves measuring the phase of the reflected RF carrier which is modulated by the quantum capacitance. We use frequency multiplexing to read out two SCBs at the same time and are looking for signs of entanglement between the two quantum bits. Candidates working in this area would receive broad training in microfabrication, RF and low temperature techniques, including measurements in the milliKelvin range. We will be exploring the possibility of using the SCBs to read Cooper Pairs broken by radiation in a concept for a spectral resolving broadband high sensitivity detector with frequency multiplexing capabilities. This technology could fill a needed gap in JPL’s long-wavelength detector development effort by providing a detector that is both compatible with a multiplexed readout and that has enough sensitivity to be useful for medium-resolution spectroscopy from a cold space telescope, where NEP~2x10-20 is needed.</p>

 <h2 style="color: #34495e; font-size: 1.2em; margin: 20px 0 10px 0;">Principal Scientist – Surface Biology Early Validation Lead</h2>
 <h2 style="color: #34495e; font-size: 1.2em; margin: 20px 0 10px 0;">What You Will Do</h2>
 <p style="line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px;">Let’s do this. Let’s change the world.</p>
 <p style="line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px;">We are building a high-throughput Surface Biology capability to identify, validate, and characterize cell type-specific cell-surface targets across multiple Therapeutic Areas. Our mission is to generate the biological understanding needed to determine whether candidate proteins represent compelling therapeutic opportunities and to identify the therapeutic modality best suited to exploit their biology.</p>
 <p style="line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px;">The Surface Biology team sits at the intersection of target discovery, cell biology, and therapeutic development. We develop scalable experimental approaches to answer fundamental questions about cell-surface biology:</p>
 <ul style="padding-left: 20px; margin: 10px 0;">
 <li style="margin: 10px 0; line-height: 1.6;">Is a candidate protein truly present on the cell surface?</li>
 <li style="margin: 10px 0; line-height: 1.6;">Is cell-surface localization specific to the disease-relevant cell type?</li>
 <li style="margin: 10px 0; line-height: 1.6;">What biological properties make this target therapeutically actionable?</li>
 <li style="margin: 10px 0; line-height: 1.6;">Which therapeutic modality is best suited for this target?</li>
 </ul>
 <p style="line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px;">Answering these questions requires both high-throughput experimental platforms and deep mechanistic understanding of protein localization, trafficking, membrane protein topology, and cellular protein biology.</p>
 <p style="line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px;">We are seeking an experienced Principal Scientist to lead a multidisciplinary team responsible for developing innovative experimental strategies that validate cell-surface targets and generate biologically meaningful datasets that directly influence target prioritization and therapeutic strategy across the discovery portfolio.</p>
 <p style="line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 15px;">In this role, you will operate in a highly collaborative environment, partnering with Therapeutic Area teams and platform functions to deliver biologically relevant insights that support target evaluation.</p>

 <li style="margin: 10px 0; line-height: 1.6;">Develop innovative experimental strategies and scalable cell-based assays to determine whether candidate proteins are truly accessible at the cell surface and selectively expressed in disease-relevant cell types.</li>
 <li style="margin: 10px 0; line-height: 1.6;">Characterize target biology—including cell-surface localization, antigen density, accessibility, trafficking, internalization, and turnover—to guide therapeutic modality selection.</li>
 <li style="margin: 10px 0; line-height: 1.6;">Investigate the biological mechanisms underlying cell-surface localization when needed, including protein trafficking, alternative isoforms, topology, and post-translational processing.</li>
 <li style="margin: 10px 0; line-height: 1.6;">Integrate experimental findings with proteomic, transcriptomic, and computational datasets to generate biologically meaningful insights for target prioritization.</li>
 <li style="margin: 10px 0; line-height: 1.6;">Partner closely with Therapeutic Areas and cross-functional teams to translate target biology into therapeutic strategies.</li>
 <li style="margin: 10px 0; line-height: 1.6;">Evaluate and implement emerging technologies that improve the throughput, robustness, and biological relevance of the Surface Biology platform.</li>
