Research Officer - Molecular Biology

A Research Officer position is available immediately at the IMCB Cell Fate Engineering & Therapeutics Laboratory. The laboratory is interested in spatial multiomic profiling of immune tissues and organs, dissecting the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms regulating cell fate changes, while developing novel tools and strategies for deriving differentiated cell types via defined factors reprogramming.

Applicants with relevant background in NextGen Sequencing (NGS), Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, or related fields are invited to apply. Experience with NGS techniques or Genomics would be highly desirable, though not essential. Successful candidates must be interested in Translational research, highly motivated, and be able to work in an interdisciplinary environment.

Requirements:

• M.Sc. from a well-recognized institution in Life Sciences/Biomedical Sciences
• Committed and able to work flexible hours
• Expertise in NGS techniques
• Expertise in cell culture, RNA extraction and other Molecular Biology techniques
• Excellent analytical, technical and problem-solving skills
• Excellent organizational skills and experience in lab management

Interested candidates are asked to send a cover letter detailing their research motivations, CV, and the names and email addresses of three references to Jonathan Loh (yhloh@imcb.a-star.edu.sg). Applicants can visit the lab website to find out more (http://www.imcb.a-star.edu.sg/php/jl.php).
