The opportunity
Anthropic's Life Sciences team is building a world-class research group focused on making fundamental biological discoveries. The team combines cutting-edge AI with hands-on biological research, positioning Anthropic at the forefront of demonstrating how AI tools can accelerate…
What you'll do
Execute molecular biology and biochemistry experiments at the bench under the direction of senior scientists
Maintain meticulous, reproducible records and contribute to shared protocols
Troubleshoot experiments, propose adjustments, and present results clearly in group meetings
Maintain mammalian and bacterial cell lines, materials stocks, and reagent inventories
Learn and adopt new techniques rapidly as projects evolve, with training provided
Have hands-on research experience in molecular biology, biochemistry, or a closely related field
What they're looking for
- A BS or MS in molecular biology, biochemistry, chemical biology,: microbiology, bioengineering, or a related discipline
- Protein expression and purification experience (e.g., affinity, SEC, IEX)
- Mammalian cell culture experience, including transfection and stable line maintenance
- Enzyme kinetics or quantitative biochemical assay development (fluorescence, absorbance, FRET)
- Next-generation sequencing library preparation experience
- Familiarity with common bioinformatics workflows and molecular biology: software (e.g., sequence analysis, alignment, primer and construct design)
- Experience using AI tools such as Claude in a research setting: for literature review, protocol drafting, data interpretation, or experimental troubleshooting
