The project
Sigrid is actively advancing several research projects, each with a distinct objective. These projects
include experimental work related to patents, studies required by authorities such as the notified body, and evidence generation to support business growth. In addition, Sigrid conducts exploratory and innovative experimental studies aimed at further expanding the potential applications of our platform technology. The projects include investigating the effects of Sigrid’s patented porous silica particles in both in vitro and in vivo settings. The successful candidate will primarily conduct experiments using established in-house methods and assays, while also contributing to the design and execution of new experiments needed to further advance our ground-breaking research.
Location: Sigrid Therapeutics Research Facility
Time period: Starting April 2026 (full-time)
The Candidate
This project is intended for postdoctoral researchers for a 3-month internship.
We are seeking a candidate with a research background in diabetes and/or metabolic diseases. A valid permit to work with laboratory animals in Europe (e.g., FELASA certification) is highly desirable. Experience in areas such as the microbiome and bacterial culture techniques is considered a plus.
The ideal candidate has:
- Strong hands-on laboratory experience in biochemical assays and related methods
- Solid understanding of experimental work in both in vitro and in vivo models
- Competence in data analysis and interpretation
- A proactive and creative mindset, with the ability to think outside the box and solve
experimental challenges in innovative ways
