Scientific Manager – Stem Cell (Job 34333)
Are you interested in pioneering Stem Cell Research? We are seeking a
Scientific Manager for the new Developmental Neurobiology Stem Cell
Laboratory. As the Scientific Manager you will lead collaborative research
projects with investigators in the Developmental Neurobiology Department.
The Scientific Manager will be responsible for:
· Developing new differentiation protocols aligned with the
research interests in the department.
· Modeling cancer in 3D culture systems using hiPSCs derived from
patients with germline cancer predisposition mutations.
· Incorporating cutting-edge techniques for genetic manipulation of
hiPSC populations to study fundamental questions in developmental
neurobiology and cancer initiation and progression.
· Curate and store hSC cell lines and develop standard operating
procedures for maintaining and differentiating stem cells from diverse
sources.
We offer the exciting opportunity for exposure to breakthrough stem cell
technologies, including 3D culture systems, access to iPSCs from patients
with germline cancer predisposition mutations, CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing
and stem cell based models of childhood brain tumors.
The investigators within the Developmental Neurobiology Department at St.
Jude Children’s Research Hospital have pioneered innovative new approaches
using stem cells to advance our understanding of fundamental processes
underlying neural development and pediatric brain tumors. Our department
includes 15 faculty members with diverse research interests including
mechanisms of development, learning and memory, neurodegeneration and cancer
.
The Scientific Manager will join a team of managers that oversee other
departmental core facilities including a neuroembryology laboratory, a
neurobehavior testing unit, a flow cytometry core and a bioimaging resource.
