Basel, Schweiz Institute of Molecular and Clinical Ophthalmology Basel Vollzeit

The Institute of Molecular and Clinical Ophthalmology Basel (IOB) is seeking a highly motivated **Intern **to take part of a medical device development in the context of gene therapy within the Ophthalmic Translational Research Group.

IOB is a research institute combining basic and clinical research. Its mission is to drive innovations in understanding vision and its diseases and develop new therapies for vision loss. It is a place where your expertise will be valued, your abilities challenged, and your knowledge expanded.

The Ophthalmic Translational Research Group is primarily interested in gene therapy with focus on vision loss. The eye as a model system provides a unique opportunity to study, develop and translate novel classes of therapies (such as optogenetics, precision genome editing or RNA therapy). Due to its small size and relative immunprivileged environment, a new concept can rapidly reach the stage of a first-in-human (FIH) clinical trial. IOB currently has two main preclinical programs based on gene therapy (cone-based optogenetic vision restoration and base editing for Stargardt disease).

In this project, we aim to develop a novel surgical device that would allow to deliver gene-based medicines into specialized compartments of the eye. The device has a clear translational pathway as it will be used in IOB’s gene therapy programs. The device is co-developed by IOB’s researchers and a Swiss engineering company.

**Your responsibilities**
- Work together with engineers, researchers and medical doctors to develop the surgical instrument
- Build an experimental test setup to determine the critical biophysical parameters of injection
- Perform experiments on ex vivo model systems (e.g. porcine eyes) to analyze critical parameters for developing the surgical instrument
- Design and develop the core elements of the surgical device and perform proof-of-concept experiments on ex vivo model systems
- Be part of the translation of the device to the clinic

**Requirements**:

- BSc or MSc degree in the field of Biomedical Engineering, Biotechnology, Biophysics or similar field
- Programming skills for data analysis (e.g. MatLab, R, python etc.)
- Ability and willingness to work in a Team

**We offer**
- Highly competitive conditions in a dynamic and international research community in Basel
- Work with an interdisciplinary Team consisting of engineers, researchers and medical doctors
- IOB is an equal-opportunity employer with family-friendly work policies

**Application / Contact**
- CV detailing scientific experience, publications, acquired skills
- A detailed description of your long-term research interests, research ideas and career goals
- ideally contact information for two (2) references
