[bioundgrd] Fwd: Technician Position at Harvard Medical School

[Janice Chang]

>I am a researcher at Harvard Medical School in Boston and am looking 
>for a research technician for our group to begin in June 2012. I 
>would like to find someone interested in applying to graduate school 
>or medical school but who would like a couple years of research 
>experience beforehand. This would be a full-time paid research 
>assistant position with a 1-2 year commitment. Our lab aims to 
>understand the molecular underpinnings of development of endodermal 
>organs such as the pancreas and intestine using embryonic stem cells 
>(ES cells). We have developed a highly efficient ES cell 
>differentiation system toward these organs in which we have an 
>understanding of the signaling and transcriptional mechanisms 
>underlying cell fate decisions. We have generated corresponding 
>genomic data using ChIPseq, DNAse-seq, and mass spectrometry and are 
>now following up these experiments to unravel DNA-level mechanisms 
>of organogenesis. We are part of a large interdisciplinary 
>initiative called Syscode (<http://www.syscode.org>www.syscode.org) 
>and closely collaborate with computational biologists at 
>Massachusetts Institute of Technology with the goal of building a 
>predictive model of development that combines cell signaling inputs 
>and transcriptional interactions discovered in our experiments. The 
>job duties would be a mix of molecular biology including genomic 
>techniques such as ChIPseq and DNase-seq, as well as cell culture, 
>specifically production, maintenance and differentiation of 
>embryonic stem cells. Additional roles would include data analysis 
>and presentation. Please feel to send me a resume 
>at <mailto:rsherwood at partners.org>rsherwood at partners.org if you are 
>interested in discussing this further.
