Bioconjugation Scientist
Nanogami, Germany
Job Description
Nanogami is building the next generation of biochips through revolutionary single-molecule placement. Using DNA Origami allows us to develop a system that is significantly better than the status quo in every way imaginable: Firstly, the placement of single molecules becomes easier and more accurate than ever before. Secondly, DNA Origami will make Biochips smart by adding a new array of functionalities to their arsenal. Finally, our technology is easily customizable and mass-producible, which makes it suitable for a wide range of applications. As a result, Nanogami will create a paradigm shift that will not only revolutionize entire industries but change everyday life as we know it among others by making personalized medicine the new standard.
We are one of six projects backed by SPRIND (Germany's Federal Agency for Disruptive Innovation). To learn more about what we’re doing, check out our TEDx talk or SPRIND Article and Podcast.
