Researcher

Company Description

EviCure is a pioneering company located in Ness Ziona, developing a novel extracellular vesicle (EV)--based platform technology for cancer treatment. Leveraging AI capabilities and sophisticated human cancer disease models, EviCure aims to achieve robust and specific anti-tumor effects against a wide range of solid tumors. Their groundbreaking approach for the scale-up of EVs using AI algorithms and biological sensors ensures consistent and reproducible production maintaining anti-tumor effects.

PL-Ex-1, the first product on EviCure’s platform, is expected to become a leading EV treatment against lung cancer, providing a safe, cost-effective, mutation-agnostic, and stage-independent therapy for lung and other solid tumors.

Role Description

This is a full-time on-site role for a Researcher at EviCure Ltd. The Researcher will be involved in conducting in-depth comparative analyses of various stem cell subpopulations and secreted EVs to develop anti-tumor effects against solid tumors. The tasks will include working with RNA-based therapies and small therapeutic molecules within the EVs to target multiple oncogenic pathways associated with tumor growth, metastasis, and treatment resistance.
