Oferta compartida por Nuria

We are looking for two Advanced Research Assistants (one long term, and one 12 month maternity cover) to work as part of our team, focused on using sequencing approaches to study flying insects and their associated cobionts. The primary aspect of your role will be to run projects in the molecular lab including but not limited to high throughput DNA and RNA extractions, PCRs, evaluation and testing of new SOPs, and detailed tracking of sample management and processing. We often have new project ideas that require creativity and independent research to implement, and we are looking for a creative problem solver who takes initiative and has genuine interest in helping all lab projects succeed. You’ll be experienced handling large numbers (1000s) of samples, with careful attention to detail. You’ll have at least one year of full time lab experience with DNA and/or RNA, including extractions, measuring quality and quantity, PCR, troubleshooting, summarizing and presenting results to the lab team, and making proposals for next steps.
