LanceSoft Inc
Molecular and Cellular Biologist – DAF Functional Genomics
LanceSoft Inc, Cambridge, Massachusetts, us, 02140
Position Summary
We are seeking a scientist to join our Systems Immunology Lab in ***’s Inflammation & Immunology Research Unit. The successful candidate will be responsible for generating massive single-cell perturbational data using functional genomics and single cell transcriptomics technologies in collaboration with a small team. Responsibilities
Generate custom lentiviral libraries and maintain extensive cell cultures. Generate edited pools of cells via lentiviral transduction and arrayed electroporation. Generate single-cell data via several commercial workflows, including from 10x Genomics. Develop, modify, and customize such procedures as needed to succeed in specific cell lines and types, and at large scale. Organizational Relationships
Reports to a lead scientist in Systems Immunology Lab. Collaborates with and supports several multi-disciplinary experimental teams on a per-project basis. Education and Experience
Bachelors or Masters + 3 years of experience in Biology, Immunology or a related field Technical Skills Requirements
3+ years of hands-on experience with standard cell culture techniques including primary immune cells handling and isolation, maintenance of cell lines and in vitro stimulation of primary immune cells, experience with standard molecular biology techniques including lentivirus infection, qPCR, western blot, and flow cytometry. Bonus: direct experience in pooled cell screening of immune cells using CRISPRi, CRISPRa, and other methods of in vitro gene editing. Physical Position Requirements
Typical bench work, including sitting, pipetting, lifting Hard Skills
Diverse Cell Types Molecular biology techniques (qPCR) Gene Editing Preferred
Direct experience in pooled cell screening of immune cells using CRISPRi, CRISPRa, and other methods of in vitro gene editing. Interview Process
