Lab Administration Research Technician- Bertozzi Lab

We are currently looking for a highly motivated Lab Administration Research Technician to support Dr. Carolyn Bertozzi at Stanford University in Palo Alto, CA. In the 21st century, explorations at the interface of chemistry and biology will spawn new medicines and diagnostics that improve human health, technologies for probing natural biology, and roadmaps for creating synthetic forms of life engineered to serve human needs. The Bertozzi lab’s research centers on creating new platform technologies that promote these endeavors as well as applying chemical approaches to study systems that elude more conventional methods of biological inquiry. Examples of technologies that drive their research are bioorthogonal chemistries, site-specific protein modification methods, and synthetic glycopolymers that emulate cell-surface glycoproteins. This support role will serve as back-up to the Lab Manager and will perform day-to-day operational tasks such as maintaining adequate supplies for experimental needs, assist in equipment maintenance, and help manage safety programs to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations. The ideal candidate will be incredibly organized, detail-oriented, assertive, and have a strong interest in laboratory operations along with a genuine desire to help support the Bertozzi lab’s goals.
