As a Researcher Senior, you will have expanded responsibilities, overseeing complex or multiple research projects and providing strategic direction. This professional-level role involves mentoring junior researchers, managing project budgets, and ensuring the integrity and quality of research outcomes. Your expertise will be critical in guiding experimental design, data interpretation, and contributing to high-impact publications. Depending on the research focus, this position may involve research participant contact, research animal contact, and/or specimens.
Under the supervision from PI and others, the successful candidate will perform experiments focusing on stem cell research in vitro and lead a project(s) with other staff scientists. The successful candidate will also contribute to other projects through assisting trainees (e.g., postdoctoral fellows, graduate students) and faculty in the lab. The candidate will have the opportunity to contribute to stem cell research and apply techniques including adult stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) culture and differentiation, gene editing in vitro and in vivo. The specific techniques include, but not limited to, cell culture, flow cytometry and cell sorting, DNA/RNA/protein extraction and quantification, histology, microscopy.
