Scientist/Senior Scientist Immunology - Boston, United States - Hillstar Bio
Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionAbout the Company
Hillstar Bio, is a precision immunology company that recently completed a sizable Series A financing with a syndicate of blue-chip investors (Droia, Frazier, Novo, LifeArc).
Hillstar aspires to build a portfolio of programs against autoimmune diseases with unmet or underserved medical needs. Its lead program is an antibody designed to selectively target a root cause of Cold Agglutinin Disease (CAD) and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). CAD is a chronic, rare (incidence 15/million) but debilitating condition with high morbidity (anemia, fatigue, cold-induced circulatory symptoms). SLE on the other hand, affects an estimated 3 million adults worldwide, with symptoms affecting various organs including joints, kidneys, blood cells, brain, heart, and lungs. Existing treatment options for CAD and SLE have limited effectiveness, carry considerable safety risks, and fail to address key disease symptoms in a large proportion of patients, leading to significant chronic morbidity and excess mortality. By bringing this new precision modality to patients, Hillstar aims to improve on safety and efficacy, as well as durability of response, setting a new gold standard for the management of CAD, SLE, and potentially other serious autoimmune conditions with a common biological origin.
Job Description
Join Hillstar Bio as a Scientist/Senior Scientist Immunology overseeing the design and execution of in vitro and in vivo mechanistic, proof-of-concept and safety studies, provide scientific and technical expertise in immune cell biology, and support regulatory filing with authoring of technical reports.
This pivotal role offers a chance to shape our company culture, make a meaningful impact on patient care, and contribute to the growth of a pioneering organization. We seek a passionate, hands-on scientist with a collaborative spirit, ready to thrive in a dynamic, close-knit team environment.
