Research Associate II Stem Cell & In Vivo Biology / SeaHub
This job is no longer available
There are still lots of open positions. Let's find the one that's right for you.
About The Position
The mission of the Allen Institute is to unlock the complexities of bioscience and advance our knowledge to improve human health. Using an open science, multi-scale, team-oriented approach, the Allen Institute focuses on accelerating foundational research, developing standards and models, and cultivating new ideas to make a broad, transformational impact on science. Join the Seattle Hub for Synthetic Biology (SeaHub), a new initiative at the intersection of academic creativity and start-up style execution. Our mission is to reimagine living cells and genomes as devices for recording biology and diagnostic information over time, as well as for encoding real-time therapeutic decision-making. Take off with us as we imagine and create a kind of cellular flight recorder that can also seize the controls. Be part of a small dynamic team on the ground floor of a new program with world-class scientists. SeaHub is looking for a Research Associate to join our In Vivo team, responsible for expanding our ability to analyze DNA recording in stem cells and whole organisms. The In Vivo team is part of a larger effort that includes teams focused on expanding our abilities to engineer cells and genomes to autonomously Sense, Write, Read, and Act at a molecular level. The Research Associate will be working in the laboratory on a daily basis to establish cell lines and mouse strains that can write synthetic records in DNA, e.g., using DNA Typewriter, and to evaluate recording performance in mice.
