Within BASF Seed and Traits R&D, Screening refers to exploring genetic diversity using functional bioassays. The Screening group in Trait Research is responsible for developing and performing functional bioassays for early selection of candidate leads, based on interactions between small molecules and plant target genes but also interactions between proteins, RNA and DNA. A diverse range of biological screening systems (insects, yeast and plant based) are being developed to solve a specific research question. Screening is embedded in the Trait Research department that focuses on design, creation and testing candidate leads as gene-based solutions for crop improvement.
For the Screening group in our R&D Innovation Center in Ghent (Belgium) we are looking for an enthusiastic and hands-on Technician to support Insect Screening activities.
