AD / Director, Biology at Cedilla Therapeutics
We are Cedilla. We are here to beat cancer by going after the most vulnerable targets that drive this terrible disease. We have the expertise to put proteins in context and develop conditional inhibitors that selectively perform when proteins are in their functional state. We are not daunted when targets appear elusive. Our goal is to stop cancer-causing proteins in their tracks with small molecules that deliver a knock-out punch. We are moving forward with urgency, because we know our work has the potential to transform lives and patients can't wait.
You are an experienced project team leader and manager with exceptional problem-solving and cross-functional team management skills. Curiosity, flexibility, personal motivation, and drive are key attributes for all members of our team.
We view you as a key contributor whose contributions will be critical to our success. Your role will include:
