ABOUT ZOMP
ZOMP spun out from the University of Cambridge. We built a label-free 3D imaging cytometer to transform how cell therapies are made.
ABOUT THE CELL TECHNICIAN ROLE
Work with Dori, our Senior Application Scientist, at the heart of our lab - preparing primary cell samples, developing core assays, and running our prototype imaging flow cytometer. If you enjoy being given a goal, having practical autonomy, and playing a key role in validating pioneering technology, this is for you.
Key Responsibilities
- Prepare primary cell samples, perform immune cell staining, and execute core assays (PBMC culture, cell activation and exhaustion models).
- Operate ZOMP’s prototype imaging flow cytometer to generate robust analytical datasets.
- Assist in developing, refining, and validating cell therapy assays.
- Run customer samples and support technical demonstrations on-site at customer locations.
