Entry Laboratory Sciences Professional - 34420 University Staff
We seek a highly motivated, enthusiastic, curious, organized, detail-oriented, and considerate person to become a full-time professional research assistant (PRA) in the Santoro lab, which is part of the Section of Developmental Biology within the Department of Pediatrics. We use mice as a model to investigate how the mammalian olfactory system develops and how its composition and organization change based on an individual's experience, with a long-term goal of better understanding how the human olfactory system functions and may become dysfunctional. Current projects in the lab focus on how the life-long birth and survival of olfactory sensory neurons are regulated, and the roles of these processes in experience-dependent adaptation. It is anticipated that the successful candidate will spend approximately 3/4 of their time working as part of a team to experimentally investigate these questions and present and publish their findings, and 1/4 performing lab management tasks. Experimental approaches to be learned and performed may include mouse genotyping, bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing, spatial transcript profiling, lineage tracing, RNA fluorescent in situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry, quantitative PCR, and quantitative microscopy. New experimental approaches may also be developed as part of this position.
- this role is expected to work onsite and is located in Aurora, CO.
The Santoro Lab is part of the Section of Developmental Biology, an overarching goal of which is to improve human health. Specifically, the section has five main objectives: To accomplish these objectives the faculty, graduate students, postdoctoral trainees, and research staff who comprise the Section of Developmental Biology perform research using stem cell, organoid, and animal experimental models, including Drosophila, zebrafish, and mice. Within the section, investigations focus on several major tissue and organ systems such as the brain, heart, intestine, vascular, olfactory, and immune systems. Our work is leading to a better understanding of childhood disabilities associated with neuropsychiatric disease, Down syndrome, the congenital basis of cardiovascular and facial malformations, and the impact of maternal health on fetal development. We have AMAZING benefits and offerexceptional amounts of holiday, vacation and sick leave! The University of Colorado offers an excellent benefits package including: There are many additional perks & programs with the https://apptrkr.com/get_redirect.php?id=5614889&targetURL=Entry Laboratory Sciences Professional
