Participates in standard lab experiments. Assists in experiments using established protocols and procedures, and records results of experiments in electronic lab notebook. Performs all general and advanced procedures within the lab with minimal supervision. Assists in planning of experiments as well as in interpretation of results. Some programming knowledge ( Python, Java, R) extremely useful but not essential. Experience repairing equipment useful.
    Assist in Developing Procedures - Assists in implementing new procedures and protocols using advanced instrumentation to support experiments. Participates actively in developing, recommending and implementing new approved procedures, or modifications to existing protocols and procedures. Maintains and updates technical knowledge.

Advises appropriate personnel of situations/problems requiring intervention or follow-up attention.

    Job Responsibilities:

  • Implement standard and new generation cutting edge molecular cloning techniques to build custom plasmids for directed experiments in yeast and mammalian cell culture.
  • Perform standard yeast molecular genetic experiments ( transformations to delete, mutate, or tag genes; grow yeast cultures) and characterize the phenotype of the resulting strains
  • Assembly of large segments of designer, synthetic DNA using yeast as a cloning tool.
  • Recover plasmids from yeast into E. coli, perform minipreps, and characterize by restriction digestion the genetic structure of the resulting constructs
  • Prepare resulting constructs and strains for next generation sequencing, and subsequently analyze obtained NGS data.
