Description
University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus
Department: Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics
Job Title: Research Associate
Position #:00815915 – Requisition #:31246
Job Summary: | The laboratory of Ning Zhao at the University of Colorado - Anschutz Medical Campus (www.ningzhaolab.com) is looking for a motivated and ambitious Research Services Senior Professional to join their team. The Ning Zhao lab studies gene regulation and protein co-translational folding in health and disease. The lab employs a combination of advanced techniques in cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, and state-of-art single-molecule tracking in living cells to understand the mechanisms of gene regulation and co-translational folding in a native intracellular environment. As a Research Associate, you will play a key role in leading the projects, publishing papers, assisting grant applications, and training junior scientists. Your expertise in molecular biology and biochemistry techniques, such as PCR, cloning, plasmid preparation, and western blotting will be essential. You will also work with cell cultures and have proficiency in advanced methods like generating stable cell lines, genome editing, smFISH, IF, Co-IP, fluorescence microscopy and image analysis, and mass spectrometry. This position offers opportunities for professional growth and career development. |
Work Location: | Onsite – this role is expected to work onsite and is located in Aurora, Colorado. |
Why Join Us: | Our department conducts research across a wide biological scale for fundamental scientific understanding with applications to many disease contexts. The overarching goal is to reach a level of molecular insight that helps develop therapeutic approaches to disease. As biochemists and molecular geneticists, we are in the midst of an unprecedented time of discovery - our conception of the molecular biology of cells is going from the equivalent of grainy black-and-white to high-resolution technicolor. From deciphering the choreography of transcription complexes, chromosomes and RNA molecules within cells to developing novel approaches to 3D molecular structure determination to understanding how viruses hijack a cell's machinery and alter its metabolome, the researchers in Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics (BMG) are at the forefronts of their fields both conceptually and technologically. The University of Colorado offers a comprehensive benefits package that includes health insurance, life insurance, retirement plans, tuition benefits, ECO pass, paid time off – vacation, sick, and holidays and more.
