- Work with cutting-edge companies across healthcare, precision medicines, informatics and data as well as in areas of sustainability, bio engineering and genomics.
- Drive innovation partnerships between Scottish and Swiss institutions which can contribute to the UK’s economic growth.
What will you be expected to achieve?
