job description

WatchFrog designs, produces and markets solutions for detecting and identifying the effects of pharmaceutical, cosmetic and chemical substances on whole vertebrate organisms. We provide low-cost diagnosis of the interaction of a pharmaceutical, chemical compound or an industrial effluent with a complete complex organism. This test methodology combines the advantages of in vivo with the flexibility of in vitro. It rapidly and simply furnishes accurate information of high sensitivity and specificity, together with low cost and the potential for automatization. The new generation of tests offered by WatchFrog is allied to the development of amphibian models that "light up" (through emission of fluorescence) when a biological function is activated. WatchFrog is recruiting a post doc, to help complete the development of new models dedicated to the study of the immune system. The successful candidate will work independently but in close contact with in–house staff in order to take charge of the development of new models.
