This work is performed in the Biological Safety Level 2 (BSL2) containment facilities with appropriate PPE. The work in Molecular Biology Laboratories consists of all process stages from fully automated RNA extraction and RT-PCR workflows, data analysis and delivery of PCR based results. This work is performed at Biological Safety Level 1 (BSL1) laboratory with appropriate PPE. Applicants should be comfortable performing this process while using PPE.

Tube to plate transfer, sample lysis and inactivation will be performed on the automation, and once completed the plates will be transferred to the adjacent molecular biology laboratories. On occasion this process may be run manually requiring experience with manual pipetting. The operation of Beckman I series robotics to perform automated magnetic bead RNA extraction procedures; tracking samples through the LIMS system; RT-PCR reaction setup including manual pipetting as well as automated plate preparation using benchtop automation equipment; setting up molecular assays on qPCR instruments; analysis of results and transference to Data/QC analysts for subsequent downstream analysis and data reporting.
