Research Tech position in Miller Lab at UW Seattle

The Miller Lab (Dana L. Miller, PI) in the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Washington has an immediate opening for a research technician. We use genetic, molecular and biochemical approaches to elucidate novel physiological responses to low oxygen (hypoxia) and hydrogen sulfide. We are particularly interested in mechanisms that influence lifespan/aging and the regulation of animation. This is a super opportunity for a curious, motivated individual that is willing to commit two years to work in a fun, high-energy group. Job responsibilities include C. elegans strain maintenance, general lab upkeep and performing supervised and independent research. A working understanding of molecular genetics is required and previous experience with C. elegans is highly desired. For more information, see the Miller Lab webpage at bit.ly/miller-lab.
