Biohub
Biohub is leading the new era of AI-powered biology to cure or prevent disease through its 501c3 medical research organization, with the support of the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative.
The Team Biohub is a group of nonprofit research institutes that bring together scientists, engineers, and physicians with the goal of pursuing grand scientific challenges on 10- to 15-year time horizons. Biohub focuses on understanding underlying mechanisms of disease and developing new technologies that will lead to actionable diagnostics and effective therapies.
Our Vision
We pursue large scientific challenges that cannot be pursued in conventional environments
We enable individual investigators to pursue their riskiest and most innovative ideas
The technologies developed at the Biohub facilitate research by scientists and clinicians at our home institutions and beyond
Diversity of thought, ideas, and perspectives are at the heart of Biohub and enable disruptive innovation and scholarly excellence. We are committed to cultivating an organization where all colleagues feel inspired and know their work makes an important contribution.
The Opportunity The
Research Associate
will contribute to the development of new single cell multi-omics technologies for high throughput screening and will have demonstrated experience in designing, performing, and troubleshooting experiments.
What You'll Do
Design and perform molecular biology assays including primer design, DNA/RNA purification, gel electrophoresis, PCR, etc.
Execute benchmarking and optimizing single cell/nuclei extraction, barcoding, and library preparation methods
Perform next generation sequencing
Assist in identifying and recommending improvements to experimental processes and best practices
Support development of single cell multi-omics profiling technologies for high throughput screening
Collaborate with other scientists to achieve optimal experimental design and problem solving
Contribute to the preparation of manuscripts and presentations
What You'll Bring Essential -
Bachelor's degree in molecular biology, biotechnology, or related field plus 2 years of research experiences, or master's degree with no research experience required
At least 1 year experience of molecular and/or synthetic biology techniques
At least 1 year experience in next generation sequencing
Comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms underlying the experiments
Strong troubleshooting skills in developing and optimizing experimental protocols or technology
Demonstrate initiative and proactive attitude to problem solving
Ability to communicate effectively across interdisciplinary teams, including biologists, data scientists, and engineers
Nice to have -
Familiarity with data analysis and single-cell analytic workflows
Compensation The New York City, NY base pay range for a new hire in this role is $71,000.00 - $98,000.00. New hires are typically hired into the lower portion of the range, enabling employee growth in the range over time.
