Job Description

About ANGLE: \xe2\x80\x8b ANGLE is a world leading liquid biopsy company with sample-to-answer solutions. ANGLE\'s proven patent protected circulating tumor cell (CTC) harvesting technology is known as the Parsortix\xc2\xae system. ANGLE\'s Parsortix\xc2\xae system is FDA cleared for its intended use in metastatic breast cancer and is currently the first and only FDA cleared medical device to harvest intact circulating cancer cells from blood. \xe2\x80\x8b The Parsortix system enables a liquid biopsy (a simple blood test) to be used to provide the circulating metastatic breast cancer cells to the user in a format suitable for multiple types of downstream analyses. The system is based on a microfluidic device that captures cells based on a combination of their size and compressibility. The system is epitope independent and can capture all phenotypes of CTCs (epithelial, mesenchymal and EMTing CTCs) as well as CTC clusters in a viable form (alive). CTCs harvested from the system enable a complete picture of a cancer to be seen; as being an intact cell they allow DNA, RNA and protein analysis as well as cytological and morphological examination and may provide comparable analysis to a tissue biopsy in metastatic breast cancer. Because CTC analysis is a non-invasive process, unlike tissue biopsy, it can be repeated as often as needed. This is important because cancer develops and changes over time and there is a clear medical need for up-to-date information on the status of a patient\xe2\x80\x99s tumor. In addition, the live CTCs harvested by the Parsortix system can be cultured, which offers the potential for testing tumor response to drugs outside the patient. \xe2\x80\x8b Join our Team: \xe2\x80\x8b This is an exciting time at ANGLE and our team in Guildford are looking for a Laboratory Operations Technician (or Laboratory Assistant) contributes to the smooth running of the laboratory, providing support to the scientific team, while working in a multi-disciplinary team. \xe2\x80\x8b At ANGLE, we foster a dynamic, entrepreneurial approach to translating leading edge translational research into clinical diagnostics.
