Harvard Medical School recently launched DARTS, a nationwide initiative that develops new precision technology to combat antimicrobial resistance. The effort is spearheaded by Johan Paulsson's lab in the Systems Biology Department at Harvard Medical School. The broader team includes 25 academic groups, hospitals and companies; it is funded by one of the largest grants in Harvard's history: hms.harvard/news/hms-researcher-lead-104-million-federal-project-tackling-antibiotic-resistance. To help DARTS achieve its promise, the Paulsson lab seeks a multi-talented Research Assistant (RA) who will be assisting in experiments at the nexus of high-throughput microscopy, antibiotic discovery, bacterial physiology, and synthetic biology. Research techniques include observing native and engineered bacteria in novel microfluidic devices using cutting edge microscopy techniques, designing genetic circuits for controlling and visualizing the behavior of individual bacteria, and conducting omics-based measurements. The RA will receive close scientific mentorship and also be encouraged to develop their unique scientific interests. They will participate in group meetings and collaborate in writing papers and reports to funding agencies. They will attend seminar series within HMS and take part in the scientific and intellectual life of the lab, Harvard Medical School, and the broader DARTS team.
