Job Description
The Staff Research Associate will work in the Laboratory for Genomics Research (LGR) which is a new functional genomics center in which scientists use CRISPR/Cas9based functional genomics tools to decipher the biological functions of genes identify new drug targets and develop novel technologies to advance target discovery in both academia and industry. Theyre an integral member of a research team developing and implementing the next generation of CRISPR screening tools in human cell models to investigate the underlying causes of human disease biology and identify potential drug targets.
Responsibilities may include culturing and maintaining human cell culture lines performing flow cytometry/FACS performing standard molecular biology techniques as well as making innovative contributions to laboratory and/or field experimental procedures implementing automation protocols performing basic statistical calculations and other duties as assigned. Alternatively the responsibilities may include onboarding and development of molecular biology technologies to develop new methods for cloning sample preparation and/or supporting enabling technologies including scRNAseq highcontent imaging and automationenabled pooled and arrayed screening. Some time will be spent performing literature reviews and attending and presenting at lab meetings/journal club meetings.
