hela Sverige The newly launched National Single-Cell Genomics Facility located at the Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab) in Stockholm is looking for two highly motivated and qualified laboratory engineers.
Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab) is a national center for molecular biosciences with focus on health and environmental research. The center combines frontline technical expertise with advanced knowledge of translational medicine and molecular bioscience. SciLifeLab is a national resource and acollaboration between four universities: Karolinska Institutet, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm University and Uppsala University.
The Single-Cell Genomics Facility is one of three new facilities that will be focused on single cell genomics and proteomics. The objective is to become a world-leading platform for single cell analysis for the benefit of Swedish biomedical science. Based in Stockholm, the Single-Cell Genomics facility will focus on high throughput streamlined microfluidics-based transcriptome and genome analysis of large numbers of individual eukaryotic cells.
Area of responsibilities
At the facility, RNA or DNA sequence libraries will be constructed from single cell suspensions using state-of-the-art technology. You will handle delicate primary cell samples, fragile RNA and sensitive technological instruments on a daily basis.
Your responsibilities include FACS sorting, running the Fluidigm C1 microfluidic single-cell processor, microscopy and quality control, RNA-isolation and sequencing library construction, operating liquid handling robot, qPCR/PCR, and Bioanalyzer instruments.
Qualification
The ideal candidate will have a university degree in molecular biology, biomedical science, biotechnology or similar discipline. Previous work experience with RNA and primary cells is required. Experience with high-throughput sample preparation of RNA and/or DNA is desirable as well as working with sample preparation at a clinical analysis laboratory or comparable. Previous work with single-cell techniques is an advantage and well as GLP-training or equivalent. For one of the positions experience with flow sorting (FACS) is required.
You enjoy learning new methods, your work is thorough and diligent, and you are good at documenting your work. The position requires being able to work independently as well as in collaboration with others. You will work in an international team, so excellent communication skills, general computing proficiency, and good knowledge of English are essential. Personal skills will be highly valued.
Application process
The application is to be submitted on the MyNetwork recruitment system and include CV and cover letter.
Karolinska Institutet är ett av världens ledande medicinska universitet. I Sverige står Karolinska Institutet för drygt 40 procent av den medicinska akademiska forskningen och har det största utbudet av medicinska utbildningar. Sedan 1901 utser Nobelförsamlingen vid Karolinska Institutet mottagare av Nobelpriset i fysiologi eller medicin.
Enligt Riksarkivets föreskrifter arkiveras ansökningshandlingar i två år efter att tillsättningsbeslutet vunnit laga kraft. Detta gäller dock ej bilagor som är tryckta eller på annat sätt publicerade.
Karolinska Institutet strävar efter att vara en arbetsplats med jämn könsfördelning som är fri från diskriminering och ger lika möjligheter för alla.
