Chan Zuckerberg Biohub San Francisco
( CZ Biohub SF ) is an independent nonprofit research institute that brings together three powerhouse universities - Stanford, UC Berkeley, and UC San Francisco - into a single collaborative technology and discovery engine. CZ Biohub SF itself supports some of the brightest, boldest engineers, data scientists, and biomedical researchers to investigate the fundamental mechanisms underlying disease and develop new technologies that will lead to actionable diagnostics and effective therapies. We are guided by our values of scholarly excellence; disruptive innovation; hands-on engineering/hacking/building; partnership and collaboration; open communication and respect; inclusiveness; and opportunity for all.Our VisionWe 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 CZ Biohub San Francisco facilitate research by scientists and clinicians at our home institutions and beyond.Diversity of thought, ideas, and perspectives are at the heart of CZ Biohub Network and enable disruptive innovation and scholarly excellence. We are committed to cultivating an inclusive organization where all colleagues feel inspired and know their work makes an important contribution.The OpportunityThe dream of Loic Royer’s interdisciplinary team of computer scientists, optical engineers, and biologists is to map the emergence of cell types and states during embryonic development. To this end, the Royer Group designs, builds, and uses state-of-the-art light-sheet fluorescence microscopes to do live, volumetric, multi-color, and in-toto imaging of zebrafish embryonic development. This requires teamwork with expertise spanning zebrafish rearing, generation of transgenic lines, genomics, sample preparation and imaging, optics, bioimage analysis, and processing. We seek a Research Assistant with a thirst for learning, a strong sense of initiative, a robust work ethic, and a taste for interdisciplinary work. A successful candidate will help maintain our fish stock, conduct standard molecular biology and omics protocols, and perform imaging experiments.You willUnder the mentorship and supervision of senior researchers, plan and execute hands-on laboratory procedures to maintain and manage fish stocks, generate transgenic zebrafish, prepare samples for imaging, conduct imaging experiments, and help run standard image processing pipelines.Rapidly learn and apply zebrafish husbandry processes, molecular biology lab techniques, single-cell omics technologies, and imaging protocols in an active research environment with access to state-of-the-art resources.Troubleshoot protocols, maintain detailed records, analyze results, and contribute ideas to research projects.You haveBachelor's degree in the life sciences or bioengineering.1 year of experience with molecular biology lab experience.1 year of fluorescence microscopy imaging experience.Must have excellent organizational skills and be detail-oriented.Must be capable of taking initiative without being prompted.Must be a dedicated team player who can also work independently.Must have strong verbal and written communication skills.Nice to have -Experience working with zebrafish.Experience with advanced imaging systems, preferably light-sheet microscopes.Experience with genomics.Experience with Python.The Chan Zuckerberg Biohub requires all employees, contractors, and interns, regardless of work location or type of role, to provide proof of full COVID-19 vaccination, including a booster vaccine dose, if eligible, by their start date.CompensationResearch Associate I = $52,000 - $77,000.Research Associate II = $67,000 - $99,000.What We ProvideResources to disrupt and innovate at the frontiers of our knowledge of biology and disease.A collegial and collaborative environment consisting of diverse expertise.Access to collaborators, resources and facilities at our three partner universities (Stanford, UC Berkeley, and UC San Francisco) and at partner organizations in the Bay Area and beyond.Competitive compensation and benefits commensurate with experience.We offer a robust benefits program that enables the important work Biohubbers do every day. Our benefits include healthcare coverage, life and disability insurance, commuter subsidies, family planning services with fertility care, childcare stipend, 401(k) match, flexible time off and a generous parental leave policy. In addition, we honor our commitment to career development and our value of scholarly excellence through regular onsite opportunities to learn from the world's leading scientists.The CZ Biohub Network is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity of thought, ideas and perspectives. We are committed to cultivating an inclusive organization where all Biohubbers feel inspired and know their work makes an important contribution. Therefore, we provide employment opportunities without regard to age, race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, disability, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, or any other protected status in accordance with applicable law.Pursuant to the California Fair Chance Act, we will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.Headhunters and recruitment agencies may not submit resumes/CVs through this website or directly to managers. The CZ Biohub Network does not accept unsolicited headhunter and agency resumes. The CZ Biohub Network will not pay fees to any third-party agency or company that does not have a signed agreement with the CZ Biohub Network.
